The attackers were shot dead at the scene by an Israeli soldier and an armed civilian.
Six persons were killed and eight others injured after two gunmen opened fire at a bus stop on the outskirts of Jerusalem on Monday, reported Reuters.
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said the gunmen were Palestinians from the occupied West Bank.
Israel claims the whole of Jerusalem as its capital, while Palestinians want East Jerusalem as the capital of a future state they hope to establish in the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
The “two terrorists arrived in a vehicle” and opened fire towards the bus stop at the Ramot Junction area, BBC quoted the Israeli Police as saying.
