Reservists are being called up after three people were killed in separate attacks, including an Italian visitor when an Israeli Arab ploughed a car into pedestrians on Tel Aviv seafront.
Israel began calling up police and army reservists on Saturday after separate attacks killed three people, including an Italian tourist, in Tel Aviv and the occupied West Bank. Despite appeals for restraint, violence has surged since Israeli police clashed with Palestinians inside Jerusalem’s flashpoint Al-Aqsa mosque on Wednesday, with Israel bombarding both Gaza and Lebanon in response to rocket fire by Palestinian militants. The Italian was killed and seven other tourists wounded when an Israeli Arab ploughed a car into pedestrians on the Tel Aviv seafront on Friday evening and flipped over before being shot dead, police and emergency services said.
