An Israeli settler opened fire at two Palestinians in a parking lot in occupied Jerusalem's Old City on Friday evening. The two Arabs, residents of the Silwan neighborhood in occupied east Jerusalem, were wounded and were evacuated to the Hadassah Mount Scopus Hospital in the capital.
The shooter was arrested near Dung Gate and claimed that he had fired at the two – a 40-year-old man and a 13-year-old boy – after feeling threatened.
The Israeli claimed during his interrogation that he had been attacked by six people and had opened fire at them using a rifle in his possession. He claimed he had felt threatened by the fact that Arabs were standing next to him.
