A police spokesman told Israeli television Channel 10 that a man and a woman were killed on the spot.

A third victim died in hospital, Israeli emergency services said.

Medical care workers said that at least ten people were wounded, six of whom seriously, local news service Ynet reported.

Witness said that a man dressed in black entered the club and began to shoot in every direction with a handgun, and then fled.

The incident was "criminal, rather than nationalistic," the police spokesman said.
