Israel annexed east Jerusalem in a move not recognized internationally and considers the entire city to be its capital. The shooting on Thursday evening in a downtown area packed with people in bars and restaurants caused scenes of mass panic in the heart of the bustling city. Palestinians say such attacks are the inevitable result of a nearly 55-year military occupation that shows no sign of ending. The two killed on the spot were identified as Tomer Morad and Eytam Magini, childhood friends in their late 20s from Kfar Saba, a town just north of Tel Aviv. All of the attackers appear to have acted individually or with minimal support from a small cell. Israel withdrew soldiers and settlers from Gaza in 2005. Israeli health officials say two people were killed and at least eight others wounded in a shooting in central Tel Aviv. The shooting on Thursday evening, the fourth attack in recent weeks, occurred in a crowded area with several bars and restaurants. Thursday's shooting took place in a crowded bar on Dizengoff Street, a central thoroughfare that has seen other attacks over the years. The militant Hamas group that rules the Gaza Strip praised the attack but did not claim responsibility. The Jenin refugee camp was the scene of one of the deadliest battles of the second Palestinian intifada, or uprising, 20 years ago. Protests and clashes in the holy city during Ramadan last year eventually ignited an 11-day Gaza war.

The Hadera and Beersheba attacks were carried out by Palestinian citizens of Israel. The recent attacks appear to have been carried out by lone assailants, perhaps with the help of accomplices. Israel annexed east Jerusalem in a move not recognized internationally and considers the entire city to be its capital. But along with neighboring Egypt, it imposed a crippling blockade on the territory after the militant Hamas group seized power from rival Palestinian forces two years later. The shooting took place on Dizengoff Street, a central thoroughfare that has seen other attacks over the years. Police said there were “indications” it was a politically motivated attack – the fourth deadly assault in Israel in less than three weeks at a time of heightened Israeli- Palestinian tensions.

Palestinians say such attacks are the inevitable result of a nearly 55-year military occupation that shows no sign of ending. The recent attacks appear to have been carried out by lone assailants, perhaps with the help of accomplices. Most recently, an Arab citizen of Israel shot and killed two Israelis and wounded several others on the street in January 2016. Medics described scenes of panic, with dozens of people fleeing after the shots rang out. "Wherever the terrorist is — we'll get to him. On March 29, a 27-year-old Palestinian from the West Bank shot and killed five people in the central town of Bnei Brak. Two days earlier, a shooting attack by two Islamic State (IS) sympathizers in the central city of Hadera killed two police officers.

I know what the solution is, but I also know that after attacks is not a good time to send out press releases calling for an end to the occupation.” Safi said Israel’s ruling out of a political process with Abbas was fuelling tensions and that the number of settlers has risen markedly. “But I don’t know that I will stop going out or stop my daughters from going out at the moment. “The less organised, the more difficult it is to monitor and stop.” Caught in the middle are Israeli and Palestinian civilians. This is a period in which we have to be ready to deal with things in every sphere,” said Shaul Shay, a former deputy head of Israel’s national security council.
Forensics experts investigate the scene of a shooting attack on Dizengoff Street in Tel Aviv, on April 7.
Absolutely nothing good will come of this vicious attack. That Hazem killed and injured so many so quickly and eluded capture for so long is distressing, to put it mildly. That’s how lucky we were. That’s how close we were. I made it. I got lucky. Anyone outdoors was ordered by police to find a safe place and stay there. Eytam Magini, 27, recently got engaged and was looking forward to a family celebration the next night. There’s even a special verb in Hebrew that basically means “to Dizengoff” — stroll, eat, shop, enjoy. Within minutes, the beach and boardwalk were desolate. My home was only 10 minutes away by foot, but before I even put on my shoes, my phone lit up with messages.
