An Israeli serviceman was killed in an attack carried out by a suspected Palestinian gunman in the southern city of Beersheba, an Israeli police spokesman said Monday.

TEL AVIV (Sputnik) – The attacker stabbed the soldier, grabbed his M-16 rifle and began firing into the crowd at the city’s central bus station.

Earlier in the day, he said that there were two perpetrators of the attack, one of whom was apprehended and the other killed.

The latest death toll adds to a series of gun, knife and car attacks that have killed seven Israelis and over 40 Palestinians since the start of October.
