Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has named two British-Israeli sisters who were killed during a gun attack in the occupied West Bank. Rina and Maia Dee were shot dead in an attack on their car near an Israeli settlement in the West Bank on Friday.
The attack thought to be by Palestinian assailants on Friday, came after Israel launched retaliatory air strikes at Lebanon and the Gaza Strip. Tensions have been heightened by days of fighting at Jerusalem’s most holy site during the rare convergence of Ramadan, Passover and Easter.
Naming the sisters for the first time, Mr Netanyahu said: “On behalf of all the citizens of Israel, I send my condolences to the Di Mafart family for the murder of the two wonderful sisters.
