Police spokeswoman Luba Samri said the attack happened outside the city’s Jaffa Gate, a popular spot for tourists visiting Jerusalem’s walled Old City. The attacker’s id wasn’t instantly known.
On Thursday, Palestinian Arab terrorists continued to attack Israeli civilian targets and IDF positions in Judea and Samaria (West Bank). Twenty-one Israelis have now been killed, a lot of them in stabbings and shooting attacks by Palestinians.
Near Qalandia in the West Bank, Israeli troops carrying out an arrest raid shot two Palestinians who fired at them from within a crowd of rock- and petrol bomb-throwing protesters, the army said.
Since the beginning of October 2015, more than 130 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli Occupation Forces, and thousands injured.
A Jerusalem knife attack on Wednesday ended with an Israeli stabbed to death, and another killed, seemingly by a stray police bullet, as officers shot dead the Palestinian assailants. The Shin Bet internal security agency said Wednesday that it had arrested a group of 25 Palestinians in recent weeks for planning bombing and suicide attacksagainst Israelis. The firebombing killed a Palestinian couple and their 18-month-old son. Another man, who was apparently wounded by police as they shot at the Palestinian assailants, also died later.
Israeli settlements are deemed illegal under global law because they are built on Palestinian territories that are occupied by Israel.
A 46-year-old Israeli man was shot accidentally when the policewomen shot at the attackers, Israel’s Magen David Adom emergency medical service said in a statement, adding that he died of his wounds in the early evening.
