Three people were injured this Thursday in a shooting in Tel Aviv, the Israel Police reported, describing the incident as a "terrorist attack" amid a notable upsurge in violence in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
"A report was received about a terrorist attack in Tel Aviv. A suspect shot three civilians who were injured," the Police said in a statement, which specified that the attacker "was neutralized by police officers."
Although details of the attacker's identity have not been revealed, armed attacks by Palestinians or Israeli Arabs with nationalist motives are often described as a "terrorist attack" by the Israeli authorities.
