2 Ukrainians killed in attack in Israel
JERUSALEM – Two Ukrainians were among five people killed in a shooting attack in central Israel.
A police statement said that the two Ukrainian nationals were aged 23 and 33, but did not reveal their names.
Police said the attacker was a 26-year-old Palestinian from Ya’bad village near Jenin in the occupied West Bank.
Israeli security authorities blamed the attack on a Daesh/ISIS sympathizer, saying the attacker had previously been imprisoned for “security-related” crimes.
On March 27, two policemen were killed and three others injured in a shooting attack claimed by the Daesh/ISIS terrorist group in the central city of Hadera.
