The death toll in the Jaffa terror attack has been revised to six, police say.
Another nine were wounded.
One of the terrorists was armed with an assault rifle, while the other had a knife. The pair shot and stabbed civilians on the Tel Aviv light rail, before continuing on foot, attacking people on Jerusalem Street in the city.
A municipal security officer and armed civilians shot and “neutralized” the two terrorists, police add.
