Shooting Attack in Occupied Jerusalem Leaves Multiple Casualties (Video)
A deadly shooting incident unfolded this morning in occupied Jerusalem, where two armed Palestinian individuals opened fire on a bus carrying Israeli settlers at the Ramot Junction, a busy intersection in the northern part of the city. The attack has left at least five settlers dead and 17 others wounded, with several others reported to be in critical condition.
According to local sources, the assailants waited for the bus to stop before boarding and opening fire on passengers. Eyewitness footage and images from the scene show that the attackers used locally manufactured Carlo submachine guns.
Both gunmen were killed during the operation, although initial reports confirm that one of the assailants was martyred at the scene.
Security forces have since cordoned off Ramot Junction and begun an investigation into the incident. Israeli forces are surrounding several Palestinian villages near Ramallah. The two Palestinians are believed to have departed from the villages of Al-Qubeiba and Qatanna, located west of the junction and beyond the Green Line.
This operation comes amid rising tensions across the region, following recent Israeli regime strikes in Gaza that have resulted in thousands of casualties. The attack in Jerusalem is being viewed as a retaliatory act in response to ongoing violence against Palestinians.
