QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) – Two of the five men killed by a Palestinian gunman in the central Israeli city of Bnei Brak east of Tel Aviv in an attack late on March 29 were Ukrainian nationals, Israeli police said on Wednesday.
According to the police statement, the two dead were foreigners from Ukraine, one of whom was 23 years old, and the second was 32 years old.
Five people were killed in gun attacks Tuesday near two different locations near the city of Tel Aviv, which marked the third deadly attack in Israel in a week, bringing the combined death toll to 11, excluding perpetrators, the Israeli authorities announced on Tuesday.
