(IsraelNN.com) MDA staff reported Thursday that ambulances had evacuated at least three additional wounded students from the Merkaz HaRav Yeshiva in Jerusalem, where a terrorist opened fire in the library earlier in the night, killing seven.  Six wounded students were evacuated earlier in the evening, three of them in serious condition.

Paramedics explained that several students who were lightly wounded in the attack ran outside due to fears that the terrorist shooter was wearing an explosives belt, and so were not present when rescue workers entered the building.  Most of the wounded have been taken to Shaarei Tzedek hospital in Jerusalem.
