Palestinians carried out two stabbing attacks in Jerusalem on Saturday before being shot dead by police, while another two Palestinians were killed during a violent demonstration near the Gaza border fence, as a weeklong bout of violence showed no signs of slowing.
Jerusalem has seen a wave of stabbing attacks linked to tensions over a sensitive holy site in the Old City that is sacred to Jews and Muslims. In recent days the attacks by Palestinian assailants have spread to the rest of Israel, while violent protests have erupted in the West Bank and along the Gaza border, where seven Palestinians were killed on Friday. The violence has unnerved a jittery Israel, and prompted the U.S. on Saturday to issue a fresh call for restraint by all sides.
In the first stabbing on Saturday, a 16-year-old Arab attacked two Israelis who were walking from the Old City toward the city center, said police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld. Police opened fire, killing the attacker. The two victims were lightly wounded, Rosenfeld said.
Later, just outside the Old City, another Palestinian stabbed two police officers, one in the neck. Rosenfeld said other police forces opened fire and killed the attacker, but also wounded one of their own. Three officers were taken to a hospital, one in serious condition.
On the Gaza frontier, meanwhile, protests resumed Saturday afternoon, with dozens of Palestinians throwing stones and rolling burning tires toward Israeli troops along the border fence. Gaza health officials said Israeli forces shot dead a 13-year-old and an 11-year-old. The Israeli military said it fired toward protesters who approached the border.
there is only one answer I could say I’m Yisroel have no fear Moshaich will be here this year we want Moshaich Now we don’t want to wait
AP words “holy to Jews and m—-“.
they have nothing holy, they just kill and murder Mitzad Haklipa.
Its the Har Habayis, OUR Temple Mount and its our land Holy only to us, let them have thier mecca where thier own people are trampled to death…
it’s time we tell “the rest of the world” to go to hell and leave Israel alone. and Israel should not give a hoot about what the rest of the anti semitic world says or thinks.
What they refer to as palistien/palistinian dosn’t exsist!
Why oh why can’t the Israeli government say the heck with the US and the rest of the world and put an end to all these Arab animals once and for all. I mean we as Jews will always be villified and hated whether we fight back and kill off our enemies or if we just stand by and do nothing, so why not do something permanent once and for all ? I just don’t understand.no matter we are always getting hurt and worse. We show too much restraint, cowardliness and compassion towards the world and not enough fighting
i expect COL NOT to link this violence to anything except the above
Take on a hachlata for the safety and security of the Jewish People.
yet the whole world still thinks israel is to be blamed
just wow! And the rest of the world will blame us for “killing kids”
WHAT R WE DOING ABOUT IT?????
NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get ready, they are all going to headline these terrorist attacks as “Two Palestinians killed by Israeli Police.”
The US is telling Israel to do nothing about it. How typical. And why on earth is Israel still giving the UN the time of day?
can all thius stop all ready it enuff
