Two more victims of the Jaffa terror shooting last night have been named as Revital Bronstein, 24, a computer science student from Bat Yam, and Ilia Nozadze, 42, a citizen of Georgia.
Earlier, Shahar Goldman from Lod and Inbar Segev Vigder from Tel Aviv were named as two other victims in the mass shooting attack at a light rail stop, which killed seven people and wounded 16 others.
Police and the Shin Bet say the two terrorists, 19 and 25, both residents of Hebron, first opened fire inside the train carriage and then exited and continued shooting bystanders.
One of the terrorists was killed at the scene while the other was seriously wounded, police say. A number of arrests were carried out overnight in Hebron of those suspected of helping the terrorists plan and carry out the attack.
