Two gunmen reportedly associated with Hamas opened fire on a bus stop in Jerusalem on Thursday killing at least two Israelis before getting shot dead by IDF soldiers themselves, and a third Israeli civilian was killed during the crossfire, Fox News reports citing an IDF spokesperson.
“The initial investigation indicates that the terrorists arrived to the scene by car in the morning, armed with an M-16 rifle and a handgun,” a Jerusalem Police spokesperson said. “At a certain point, the terrorists began shooting at civilians before subsequently being killed at the scene. A police search of the terrorists’ car revealed ammunition and weaponry.”
