Two Ukrainians were among five people killed in Tuesday’s shooting attack in central Israel, Israeli police said on Wednesday, Anadolu News Agency reports.
A police statement said that the two Ukrainian nationals were aged 23 and 33, but did not reveal their names.
A police officer was also killed in the attack in the city of Bnei Brak, the statement said.
Police said the attacker was a 26-year-old Palestinian from Ya’bad village near Jenin in the occupied West Bank.
Tuesday’s attack was the third in a week in Israel.
Four Israelis were killed in a knife attack in the southern city of Beersheba on 22 March.
Israeli security authorities blamed the attack on a Daesh sympathiser, saying the attacker had previously been imprisoned for “security-related” crimes.
