Three Israelis were wounded in a Palestinian shooting attack in the Gaza Strip tonight, settlers and rescue services said.
The Palestinian gunman was killed, settlers said. The militant group Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for the attack.
The shootings took place on a road near the Kissufim crossing point between Gaza and Israel, a route used by Israeli settlers to reach their homes in a bloc of Jewish settlements in southern Gaza.
The settlers' spokesman said the three Israelis were not seriously wounded.
