A Palestinian gunman wanted by Israel for a lethal Oct. 8 attack at a Jerusalem checkpoint was killed on Wednesday while carrying out another shooting outside a Jewish settlement in the occupied West Bank, Israeli authorities said.
Guards at the entrance to Maale Adumim, one whom was wounded in the incident, fired back, killing the gunman, police said.
Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid identified him as responsible for killing a soldier and wounding three others in the earlier attack at a checkpoint near Shuafat, a Palestinian refugee camp on the outskirts of Jerusalem.
