CCTV footage of the attack at Jerusalem’s Mahane Yehuda market earlier today appears to show the two teenage girls attackers as they are shot by two men with guns.
In the video, one man who appears to be an older civilian fires at one of the girls as she lunges at him.
Then a uniformed man, who according to reports was a policeman, comes and fires at the other girl, who collapses against the wall just as another man tries to hit her with a plastic chair.
The second man then goes over to one of the girls and, it seems, kicks something out of her hand. Finally, he returns to the second girl, who is lying on the ground, and appears to fire at her again.
One of the attackers was killed and the other seriously wounded.
