The deadly scenes from Jerusalem sparked immediate reaction from around the world. It came with a sense of shock and blame. The Israeli government strongly condemned the killings and compared the attack to the work of the jihadist militant group ISIL. ?This morning a horrendous terror attack in Jerusalem against in**cent worshippers is motivated by the same hatred, by the same Islamist extremism that beheads in**cent civilians in Iraq and Syria,? said Israeli prime minister Mark Regev. From Ramallah there were strong words for the Palestinian militants but they were tempered with a reference to attacks on holy sites in Jerusalem. ?We strongly condemn this incident and do **t accept under any circumstances attacks on civilians. At the same time we condemn these actions we also condemn the attacks on the Al-Aqsa Mosque the holy places,? Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas told reporters. The area of Al-Aqsa in the old city of Jerusalem is the third holiest site in Islam and has been the focus of renewed tension between Palestinians and Israelis.
