Israel: soldier injured in knife attack, perpetrator killed. Another soldier was also “slightly injured in the attack,” the army said.
The assailant was shot and killed, police said. Stabbing attacks have increased in Israel and the occupied West Bank since the start of the Gaza war on October 7, triggered by the unprecedented Hamas attack that day on Israeli soil. Some 1,160 people, most of them civilians, were killed in Israel, according to an AFP count based on official Israeli data.
