The Hamas terror group says the terrorist who carried out the shooting attack in Tel Aviv, Mutaz Salah al-Khawaja, was a member of its military wing.
Hamas says the attack came as a “natural response” to recent deadly Israeli military raids in the West Bank.
Al-Khawaja was shot dead by police officers and other armed Israelis at the scene of the attack that left three wounded.
