Palestinian shot in stabbing attempt

One Palestinian boy was shot and another was subdued by a mob of train passengers after one of them stabbed an Israeli security guard at a light rail station in Jerusalem on Tuesday afternoon, according to officials.

Late last month, amid spiraling Israeli-Palestinian violence, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to maintain the “status quo” at Al-Aqsa by retaining the longstanding practice of prohibiting non-Muslim prayer at the flashpoint site.

Shortly after that, Israeli forces shot a Palestinian man they said had drawn a knife as he chased after them outside Jerusalem’s Old City.

Israeli police say Palestinian assailants have staged two new stabbing attacks on Israelis in Jerusalem.

Palestinians question whether all of those killed posed a lethal threat and have accused the Israelis of excessive force.

Mansour added: “This confirms previous reports about Israeli occupation harvesting organs of Palestinian martyrs killed during clashes or in protests”.

The seemingly unprovoked attack took place at the entrance to a West Bank settlement on Sunday. The Israelis, aged 20 and 13, survived their wounds.

A paramilitary border policeman who was critically wounded in a deliberate ramming near Hebron died of his injuries the same day.

Israelis were shocked by a separate security camera video that appearing to show the two young cousins wielding knives and chasing a man, and later stabbing an Israeli boy as he got on his bicycle outside a shop after buying a few candy.

Ten Israelis and one Arab Israeli have also been killed and violence has spread to the Gaza Strip too.

“So I told her she could not enter”.

“He wanted to frighten them, to show them that they can not keep killing [Palestinians] without a reaction”.

A leaked video purportedly showing Israeli investigators interrogating a Palestinian teen who went on trial Tuesday for the attempted murder of two Israelis was making waves.

“You are a liar!” the officer yells. “Everything you say must be true”.

One of Ahmed’s lawyers, Palestinian Tariq Barghout, said the clip was a “compilation” of moments from the full 4.5-hour interrogation, which he said he had viewed.

Hagit Ofran of the anti-settlement group Peace Now said that it could be years before any of the homes are built since the plan must pass several other phases before construction can begin.
