Three people, including two Israelis, were injured by bullets on Saturday October 8 at a checkpoint in East Jerusalem-East, said Israeli police by speaking of a “terrorist” attack. The third individual whose nationality is not specified was only affected by “bursts”, according to Magen David Adom (Mada), the Israeli equivalent of the Red Cross.

A police spokesman said in a statement that a “terrorist had shot two Israelis, seriously injuring them” at an Israeli dam near the Palestinian refugee camp in Chouafat.
