Gunman waited until Shabbat prayers ended before opening fire on people in worst terrorist attack on Israelis in years
Seven Israelis have been shot and killed as they left a synagogue in East Jerusalem, in the latest episode of spiralling violence across Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories over the past two days.
A gunman in a car waited on Friday night until Shabbat prayers ended at a synagogue in Neve Yaakov, an Israeli settlement in occupied East Jerusalem, before opening fire on people as they left the building, a preliminary Israeli police probe said.
