Israeli police officers have sealed off the family home of a Palestinian who killed seven people outside a synagogue in East Jerusalem. It comes after Israel's Security Cabinet approved new measures in response to a wave of violence in recent days. These include making it easier for Israelis to get gun licenses and stepping up efforts to collect illegal weapons. On Thursday, 9 Palestinians were killed in an Israeli raid in the occupied West Bank.
