1 zionist settler killed, 17 others injured in Jerusalem bus stop explosions

Medical sources said in the initial reports that they received 12 settlers wounded in the incident, among them two critically and two seriously.

An explosion at a station at the exit from Jerusalem wounded 12 settlers, and a separate blast at another station a short distance away demolished a bus and wounded three others, the hospitals treating the casualties said.

While the cause was still being determined, the incident came as tensions are running high in occupied territories, following months of Israeli raids in the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem.

More than 130 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank and Jerusalem this year, making 2022 the deadliest year since 2006. (ILKHA)
