The Israeli emergency service announced today that one person was killed and ten were wounded in an attack with a firearm and a knife in the southern city of Bershevi. Israel.
The attack on the city's central bus station came on the eve of the anniversary of the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas on Israel that sparked the Gaza war.
The country is on high alert as commemorations are prepared. Israeli police have not identified the attacker, but said the attack is being considered terrorist.
Since the beginning of the war, Palestinians have carried out multiple attacks with firearms, knives and vehicles in Israel.
A few days ago, seven people were killed in an armed attack in Tel Aviv, when a Palestinian opened fire on a group of people, also at a bus station.
The attacker was killed by members of the security forces.
