A Palestinian stabbed two Israeli police officers before he was shot and killed at a main entrance to Jerusalem’s Old City on Friday.
Later in the day, in the West Bank, a Palestinian rammed his car into Israeli soldiers during a “violent riot” before troops opened fire and killed him, the military said.
In the Jerusalem attack, police spokeswoman Luba Samri said the 20-year-old Palestinian “walked through Damascus Gate and then turned around with a knife in his hand, ran at the officers and attacked them.” One of the officers suffered knife wounds to the head, she said, the other was cut in the hand and struggled with the attacker before shooting him.
