| Two killed in shooting attack in Hebron. |
| 2002-12-12 |
| Two Israelis - a man and a woman - were killed at around 8 P.M. Thursday in a shooting attack close to the Tomb of the Patriarchs, a Jewish holy site in the center of the West Bank city of Hebron. The two were approaching the Tomb of the Patriarchs when the attack occurred. The woman was killed instantly, while the man died of his wounds while on the way to a Jerusalem hospital. The shooting took place close to the location of an attack last month in which 12 members of the security services were killed in an ambush after Israeli worshippers returned from prayers at the site to a nearby settlement. Another victory by those brave defenders of Paleostein. |
