A 13-year-old Palestinian boy was behind a shooting in Jerusalem today, Israeli police have said.
Two people – a father and son – were seriously wounded, while the attacker was shot and injured by passersby and is being held in hospital.
It came after seven people were killed, and at least three more injured in a shooting on Friday at a synagogue in East Jerusalem.
Police have arrested 42 people in connection with that attack. Describing Saturday’s incident, which took place in the Silwan neighborhood just outside Jerusalem’s Old City, a spokesperson for the Israeli police said the assailant ambushed five people as they made their way to prayers, leaving two in a “critical condition”.
