Israel annexed east Jerusalem in a move not recognized internationally and considers the entire city to be its capital. Three of them are believed to have identified with the extremist group Islamic State. But militant groups do not appear to have trained them or organized the attacks. The Jenin refugee camp was the scene of one of the deadliest battles of the second Palestinian intifada, or uprising, 20 years ago. Thursday's shooting took place in a crowded bar on Dizengoff Street, a central thoroughfare that has seen other attacks over the years. Protests and clashes in the holy city during Ramadan last year eventually ignited an 11-day Gaza war. Jerusalem — Israeli security forces early Friday hunted down and killed a Palestinian man who had opened fire into a crowded bar in central Tel Aviv, killing two and wounding over 10 in an attack that caused scenes of mass panic in the heart of the bustling city.

At least 9 people were shot in the attack, with victims being taken to Ichilov, Sheba Tel Hashomer and Wolfson hospitals, according to Magen David Adom, Israel's national emergency medical service.

Bennett announced late Thursday his government would scale up security forces in Tel Aviv, in addition to the already increased numbers of forces recently deployed throughout Israel and the West Bank.

Videos posted on social media showed emergency workers loading victims onto stretchers and working to clear debris as helicopters shone a spotlight from above.

Latest in series of attacks by Palestinians heightens sense of reduced personal security in Israel.
I know what the solution is, but I also know that after attacks is not a good time to send out press releases calling for an end to the occupation.” Safi said Israel’s ruling out of a political process with Abbas was fuelling tensions and that the number of settlers has risen markedly. “But I don’t know that I will stop going out or stop my daughters from going out at the moment. “The less organised, the more difficult it is to monitor and stop.” Caught in the middle are Israeli and Palestinian civilians. This is a period in which we have to be ready to deal with things in every sphere,” said Shaul Shay, a former deputy head of Israel’s national security council.
The Grammy-winning band has never performed in Israel before and will be arriving there following their first show in Abu Dhabi.

The second show, part of the band’s world tour, will be held on May 10, also at the park.

Israel annexed east Jerusalem in a move not recognized internationally and considers the entire city to be its capital. The shooting on Thursday evening in a downtown area packed with people in bars and restaurants caused scenes of mass panic in the heart of the bustling city. The two killed on the spot were identified as Tomer Morad and Eytam Magini, childhood friends in their late 20s from Kfar Saba, a town just north of Tel Aviv. All of the attackers appear to have acted individually or with minimal support from a small cell.

PM Naftali Bennett gives Israeli forces the green light to curb attacks after Palestinian kills three men in Tel Aviv.
Israel captured the West Bank in the 1967 Middle East war and has established dozens of illegal settlements where nearly 500,000 settlers reside, often under heavy Israeli military protection. It was built as part of Israel’s separation barrier, deemed illegal by the International Court of Justice. They lost a lot of colleagues, friends, and neighbours.” A Tel Aviv hospital on Friday announced Barak Lufan, 35, who was wounded in the shooting, succumbed to his injuries. Lebanon’s Iran-backed Hezbollah lauded a “victorious” attack. “There are not and will not be limits for this war,” Bennett said.
Those responsible for killing three people in an entertainment district bar 'will pay a heavy price,' says Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.
Israel has placed thousands of police and soldiers on the streets to try to stop future attacks. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas condemned the attack. "Every murderer knows we will find them.
I do not like to say this, because I truly believe Israel must end the occupation of the West Bank, for Palestinians' sake and, selfishly, for our own. It also ...
For Israelis to get to peace, we need to elect a government that brings settlers home even before peace, to show we are serious. We need to wake up from the endless delusions. The message that Tel Aviv is a settlement only convinces more Israelis that giving up West Bank settlements and ending the occupation will not bring any calm into our lives. We need a simultaneous outbreak of sanity. We have been doing the same things over and over, hurting and getting nowhere. By and large, seeing people randomly killed makes those around them — both family and larger tribe — angry and stubborn.
JERUSALEM — A third Israeli has died following the attack by a Palestinian man who opened fire into a crowded bar in central Tel Aviv.
Israel annexed east Jerusalem in a move not recognized internationally and considers the entire city to be its capital. Palestinians say such attacks are the inevitable result of a nearly 55-year military occupation that shows no sign of ending. Israel withdrew soldiers and settlers from Gaza in 2005. The shooting on Thursday evening in a downtown area packed with people in bars and restaurants caused scenes of mass panic in the heart of the bustling city. All of the attackers appear to have acted individually or with minimal support from a small cell. The two killed on the spot were identified as Tomer Morad and Eytam Magini, childhood friends in their late 20s from Kfar Saba, a town just north of Tel Aviv. The Palestinians want all three territories to form their future state. Thursday's shooting took place in a crowded bar on Dizengoff Street, a central thoroughfare that has seen other attacks over the years. The militant Hamas group that rules the Gaza Strip praised the attack but did not claim responsibility. The Jenin refugee camp was the scene of one of the deadliest battles of the second Palestinian intifada, or uprising, 20 years ago. The Israeli military frequently conducts arrest raids in Jenin, often coming under fire. Protests and clashes in the holy city during Ramadan last year eventually ignited an 11-day Gaza war.
