Palestinian Claims Responsibility for Stabbing Attack in Facebook Video

Palestinians fear that Israel is seeking to lift its long-standing ban on Jewish prayer at the site – referred to as the Temple Mount by Jews and Noble Sanctuary by Muslims.

The latest violence came after almost two months of Israeli-Palestinian confrontations.

Hebron, the largest Palestinian city in the West Bank, has witnessed daily clashes between Palestinian youth – protesting Israel’s occupation – and Israeli forces.

Israeli soldiers have responded with force, using live ammunition, rubber-coated steel bullets, tear gas and stun grenades.

While automobiles careening in to crowds was the trend in terror last year- with hit songs in Gaza & the West Bank praising “martyrs” behind the wheel- this yr Hamas & Palestinian Authority leaders, clerics & newspaper editors are brazenly encouraging stabbings which have thus far killed a dozen & wounded 167 since October 1.

The Israeli army said he was sacked upon after he breached the so-called “buffer zone” – which is on the Palestinian side of the border – as part of a group.

Palestinians fired at Jewish worshippers near a shrine in the West Bank’s largest city of Hebron on Friday, wounding two people, one of them seriously, the military said.

The military claimed her vehicle had slowed down and then sped toward the soldiers, who jumped out of the way unharmed before opening fire.

Meanwhile, Israeli public radio reported that three Israelis were injured on Friday in two separate incidents; two of them were injured in a shooting attack at an Israeli army barrier in Hebron and one Israeli was injured after he was stabbed by a Palestinian north of Jerusalem.

At the same time, rights groups have alleged that Israeli troops have used excessive force against Palestinians, in a few cases shooting dead suspected assailants who the rights groups said could have been arrested. Although details of the attack are still emerging, it appears that the shooter fled the scene. He said she had been on her way to her sister’s house for lunch when she was killed.

“This Intifada is the real response to the Israeli aggression, also to defend al-Aqsa Mosque which and against the endless settlement’s expansion which swallowed the Palestinian lands”, said Radwan. Palestinian Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Kidra says the 18-year-old fisherman was shot in the abdomen and died after being brought to a hospital.
