The two were returning from the gravesite of Shimon Hatzadik, in the eastern Jerusalem neighborhood, after early morning prayers, when the terrorist opened fire.

United Hatzalah volunteer EMT Yechiel Stern said: “I was near the tomb of Shimon HaTzadik and received reports of gunfire. I arrived at the scene within a few seconds and provided initial treatment to two people who were in moderate condition.”

Police are searching the neighborhood, including local mosques, for the terrorists.
