More from CNN:
Israel’s foreign press spokesperson said this could be a “possible terrorist attack.”
At least 15 other people were wounded when a truck veered off the road and rammed a group of soldiers.
It was not immediately clear who was behind the attack, nor whether the assailant or assailants were among those killed.
Pretty awful, and it mirrors the attack in Germany, while the target appears to be connected with the threat made by Palestinians over Trump’s declared intention to move our U.S. embassy to the religious capital.
UPDATE:
Apparently the targets for the attack were IDF soldiers.
