JERUSALEM?A Palestinian gunman opened fire with an assault rifle on Israelis waiting for a bus on a busy downtown street Tuesday, wounding eight before he was shot dead by police, officials said.

The attack came hours after Israeli commandos raided a Hamas hide-out and explosives lab in the West Bank town of Nablus, killing four members of the Islamic militant group.

Hamas responded by calling an “all-out war” against Israeli soldiers and settlers.

The gunman in the Jerusalem shooting spree was identified as Saeed Ramadan, a member of the Al Aqsa Brigades, which is linked to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat’s Fatah movement, according to members of the group and Palestinian security officials.

Like Hamas, the Al Aqsa Brigades militia has said it was ending a cease-fire in response to Israeli attacks.
