Israeli Minister's condition serious after shooting - Ananova
========================================

Israel's hard-line Tourism Minister, Rehavam Zeevi was shot and seriously
wounded at a hotel in east Jerusalem, police and hospital officials confirm.

The shooting took place at the Hyatt Hotel, which is close to Palestinian
neighborhoods in east Jerusalem.

Mr Zeevi was taken to Hadassa Hospital where he is suffering from head
wounds, and his condition is described as serious, says Professor Shmuel
Shapira, deputy director of the hospital.

He is among seven ultra-nationalists who pulled out of Prime Minister Ariel
Sharon's coalition government.

The motive for the shooting is not clear, police say.

Police spokesman Shmuel Ben-Ruby claims three shots were fired at the
minister, who was at the entrance of his room in the hotel. His wife, who
had been with him in the dining room, found him lying in the corridor.
