Three people have died in a terror attack in the central Israeli city of Elad this evening.
Two attackers armed with knives and reportedly an axe arrived at several locations at the city's amphitheatre park, police spokesperson Eli Levy told Haaretz.
Two people have also been seriously injured in the attack, which took place on Yom Ha’azmaut, Israel’s Independence Day.
Police suspect that one of the attackers fled the scene and have launched a manhunt, with roads reportedly being closed off in the area and residents ordered to stay indoors.
