Hamas claims responsibility for the shooting attack at the entrance to Jerusalem this morning, in which three Israelis were killed and six were wounded.
In a statement, the terror group hails the two perpetrators, brothers Murad (38) and Ibrahim (30) Nemer, from the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sur Baher, calling them “jihad-waging martyrs.”
Three Israelis were killed in the attack: Livia Dickman, 24, Ashdod rabbinical judge Elimelech Wasserman, 73, and Hannah Ifergan, who was in her 60s. The two perpetrators got out of a vehicle at around 7:40 a.m. and opened fire at people at a bus stop.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir claims that Hamas claim of responsibility for today’s terror attack in Jerusalem that killed three Israelis means it broke the ongoing ceasefire today.
“With one hand Hamas signs a ceasefire, with the other it sends terrorists to murder Jews in Jerusalem,” the far-right police minister, who was against the ceasefire to begin with, says in a statement released by his Otzma Yehudit party.
“This is not a ceasefire but rather a continuation of the conception of containment [of terror attacks] and concession that brought us murdered people, which gives [Hamas’s Gaza leader Yahya] Sinwar hope that he can exit this conflict with the upper hand,” he continues.
“We have to stop deals with the devil, and return immediately to the fight, with rare strength.”
