Sunday’s bloodshed is the latest in a relentless cycle of violence that has gripped the region and sparked the worst fighting between Israel and the Palestinians in the West Bank in nearly two decades. The Israeli military said the gunman opened fire on a car from a passing vehicle. Troops later arrested a suspect. Israel’s rescue service MDA said three people were wounded including a 35-year-old with gunshot wounds who is in serious but stable condition. Two girls were slightly wounded by flying debris.
