Moving away briefly from the Iranian missile attacks on Israel, in a separate incident, there has been a mass shooting in Tel Aviv, a BBC report stated.

Gunmen opened fire at people on a city street this evening, according to police, with Israeli media reporting that at least six people were killed.

At least seven others were reported to have been injured, and several are in a critical condition.

Images posted on social media showed the gunman shooting at bystanders and injured people lying on the ground at a railway station in the Jaffa area.

Police say two attackers were "neutralised" and describe the motive as "terror".
