Israeli security forces hunted down and killed a Palestinian man who opened fire into a crowded bar in central Tel Aviv, killing two and wounding over 10 in an attack that caused scenes of panic in the heart of the bustling city.

It was the fourth deadly attack in Israel by Palestinians in three weeks and came at a time of heightened tensions around the start of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
