Shootings have been reported in at least three locations in central Israel, according to media in the country. At least five people are reported to have been injured.
Among other things, shots were reportedly fired at a gas station in Kokhav Ya'ir, northeast of Tel Aviv near Israel's "security barrier" that forms the border with the occupied West Bank.
The two suspected shooters have been shot dead by security forces, The Times of Israel reports. In the settlement of Tzur Yitzhak, where the wanted shooter is believed to have fled, the military previously ordered residents to stay indoors. In nearby Tzur Natan, a warning of "terrorist infiltration" has also been activated.
According to Israeli media, the military is now sending soldiers to the area around Kokhav Ya'ir. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is monitoring the situation, his office said.
The country's ultra-conservative Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir is calling for the death penalty for the perpetrators. In March, the Knesset voted in favor of a controversial bill to impose the death penalty on terrorists - a law that in practice applies to Palestinians but not Israelis.
"Whoever murders a Jew will see the executioner's noose," Ben-Gvir writes on X after the shooting.
