Hours after a deadly shooting in central Israel killed one person and injured five, Iran-backed Hamas has claimed responsibility for the attack. Hamas' armed wing Qassam Brigades claimed it carried out the shooting attack in several towns including Kokhav Yair. The attack began with a shooting Sunday morning at a gas station near the town of Kokhav Yair, located on the Israeli side of the boundary with the occupied West Bank. Several other shootings were reported in two nearby Israeli towns and close to the Israeli settlement of Salit, inside the West Bank.
