Three Israelis were killed and another was wounded by a Palestinian gunman at a Jewish settlement in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday, Israeli police said.
"A terrorist who arrived at the rear gate of Har Adar along with Palestinian laborers entering the settlement... pulled out a weapon and opened fire at the force at the site," police said, adding "the terrorist was neutralized."
The police statement did not elaborate on the identities of the Israeli
casualties.
It said the gunman, from the nearby Palestinian village of
Beit Suriq, had an Israeli work permit.
