Hamas said the attack on Friday was in retaliation for the 25 February killing of 30 Muslim worshippers by a Jewish settler in a mosque in Hebron.
'This attack is a response to the Hebron mosque massacre on its six-month anniversary, and we promise the Israeli government two more attacks by the end of the year,' Hamas said. A witness to the scene of the attack in Ramle called it 'unusually brutal, the throats violently slashed'.
Hamas, which leads armed opposition to the Israeli-Palestinian peace deal, said the Israelis were attacked as they were installing a lift. Reuter
