'Palestinian terrorism will not be tolerated, and Jewish blood will not be spilled in vain,' the Israeli defense minister said at the site of Monday's deadly shooting.

First responders said the three people killed were two women in their 60s and a man in his 40s. Two others were reportedly injured seriously and moderately, while another five suffered mild injuries.

Sgt. Shilo Yosef Amir, 22, was laid to rest at Mount Herzl military cemetery in Jerusalem. 'Yesterday, even though you could have gone home, you chose to serve,' his commander said in a eulogy.

The Palestinian perpetrator was shot dead.

Israeli forces were successful in thwarting several Palestinian attempts to kill Israelis on Wednesday.

Several terror attacks were perpetrated in the past couple of days. There were no injuries of casualties.
