3 killed, 4 badly injured, in central Tel Aviv shooting attack

Three people were killed in a shooting attack in Tel Aviv’s popular Sarona Market Wednesday evening.

Four others were seriously hurt, with another person said to be in critical condition.

Police said two gunmen were involved in the apparent terror attack. One shooting was said to have occurred inside the Sarona compound while another was reported on the adjacent Ha’arba’ah Street.

Officials said both gunmen were shot and disarmed by security forces. One of the gunmen had reportedly fled the scene and was then shot and neutralized.

A few years ago I went to Israel with my family for my sisters wedding(She wanted to marry her hubby in Israel since his family lives there and she loved the idea of having an Israeli wedding) so we rented an apt for 2 weeks..their doors are different than the ones you see here, of course they are regular doors, but very heavy for protection against bomb attacks..there is also a secure location in every apt building in Israel(Since apts dont have bomb shelters) they have designated rooms that you go to to stay safe..unfortunately its all part of life in Israel..
The area that was attacked today, its mostly a tourist area where young people hang out..so these terrorist scum coming in Orthodox Jewish clothing should have set off a red flag. The only reason why more people didnt die is because there was someone there, a private citizen, who was ARMED and shot one of the terrorists..in Israel, since you have to serve in the military when you turn 18, you can have a gun, my cousins, all served in the Israeli army, all have firearms
