HAR ADAR: A Palestinian opened fire at Israeli security personnel at the entrance to a West Bank settlement on Tuesday, killing three and wounding another before being shot dead, police said. “Three Israelis were killed in the attack, another was wounded and the terrorist was neutralised.”Police later said the Palestinian had died of his wounds. The shooter was identified by police as a 37-year-old man from Beit Surik, a Palestinian village near Har Adar, who carried a work permit for the settlement. “The quick reaction of the security forces” who identified and shot the gunman “prevented the terrorist from entering the settlement,” he told reporters in Har Adar. “The terrible attack at Har Adar is the Palestinian reception for US envoy Jason Greenblatt,” she said.
