Since October 1, nearly daily attacks and clashes between Palestinians and Israeli soldiers have killed 112 on the Palestinian side, 17 Israelis, an American and an Eritrean. Under interim peace agreements, Israel maintains control over frequency spectrums.

“A soldier was moderately wounded”, an Israeli army spokesperson said in a statement.

Numerous stabbings, shootings, and vehicle attacks occurred in or near East Jerusalem, which Palestinians consider their rightful capital.

Israeli forces have killed 104 Palestinians, of whom 65 were identified by Israel as assailants or caught on camera carrying out assaults.
