‘Harsh terror attack’: 2 gunmen dressed as Orthodox Jews kill 3 in Tel Aviv

The incident, a suspected terror attack, took place at Sarona Market, a popular shopping center in the city center. The market is located close to the Israeli Defense Ministry and General Staff buildings.

Two suspects, referred to as “terrorists,” have been captured by police, Micky Rosenfeld, the Israel police’s spokesman for the foreign media, said on Twitter.

According to initial reports, an armed man opened fire at passers-by in the area.

Reports on social media suggested there were two shooters, “dressed as ultra-orthodox Jews.”

The perpetrators were “two Palestinians from the South Hebron Hills,” the Jerusalem Post cited Likud party member Amir Ohana as saying. The politician, who arrived at the scene, told reporters: “We need to see who sent the terrorists and to find them.”

The area has been sealed off by law enforcement, and people have been warned to stay away from the scene.
