With the gunman in the Tel Aviv terror attack still on the loose, police are urging the public to remain alert and avoid large gatherings.

“The Israel police calls on the public to continue with their normal routines, but avoid large gatherings and remain very alert and report anything suspicious to police,” a statement says.

Police and other security forces launched a massive manhunt in the Tel Aviv area after a gunman killed two people and wounded 10 others at a busy bar, before disappearing.
