Mass Shooting Terror Grips Tel Aviv as Two Gunmen Open Fire in Suspected Terror Attack

Tel Aviv was plunged into chaos and terror on Tuesday as two gunmen unleashed a horrific attack in the city’s commercial heart, right on the boundary with Jaffa.

The Israeli police quickly confirmed that several casualties had been reported in what they are treating as a suspected terror attack.

Israeli police swiftly responded to the incident, which unfolded at a light rail station where the attackers reportedly disembarked before opening fire. The Magen David Adom (MDA) ambulance service confirmed that they received their first call at 7:01 p.m. local time, and immediately dispatched emergency personnel to the scene, the Times of India reported.

The attackers’ motivations remain unclear, but Israeli authorities are treating the incident as a terror attack.

ABC News reported:

At least four people were killed and seven others injured in a shooting Tuesday night in Tel Aviv, Israel, according to a statement from the Israeli Police Spokesperson’s Unit.

The agency suspects terror as a motive in the incident. Both of the two alleged shooters have been killed, the Israeli police spokesperson’s unit said.

Large police forces are present and conducting extensive searches for any additional threats.

Two of the injured individuals were in critical condition, two in moderate condition and one lightly injured, the Israeli emergency services spokesperson said.
