JERUSALEM (AP) - Palestinian gunmen disguised as soldiers slipped into an Israeli settlement in the West Bank on Saturday and went from house to house, shooting residents in their bedrooms and killing four people, including a 5-year-old girl, the army said.
The attackers cut through the fence of the Adora settlement, west of Hebron, entered a house and shot a couple in their bedroom, killing a woman. In the upstairs bedroom of the next home, they killed the girl and wounded her mother and two younger brothers, the army and survivors said.
At least seven people were wounded in the attack, which began around 9 a.m. The Palestinians then disappeared, said Brig. Gen. Amos Ben Avraham.
