Manhunt for Palestinian axe attackers who killed three in Israel – BBC News

A manhunt is under way for two Palestinians suspected of killing three Israelis in an axe and knife attack in central Israel.

It happened in the predominantly ultra-Orthodox Jewish town of Elad on Thursday night. Seven others were wounded, two seriously.

The attackers struck in a park in Elad where families had gathered to celebrate Independence Day, and on a main street.

It is the latest in a wave of deadly attacks in Israel by Palestinians or Israeli Arabs since late March.

Israel has carried out raids in the occupied West Bank in response.
