Israel: Upsurge of attacks against Jews

On Monday, two Palestinian youths were killed during clashes in the West Bank. One of them was thirteen and had been shot by mistake. Two days earlier, a Palestinian stabbed two Israelis to death in Jerusalem. Another stabbed and wounded an Israeli teenager. Police killed both attackers. On Tuesday a Palestinian woman stabbed an Israeli man in the back in Jerusalem’s Old City, he then drew a gun and shot her. On Wednesday an Israeli woman driving to Jerusalem was attacked by a mob of rock-throwing Palestinians. The attack occurred on a route used by thousands of Jewish and Palestinian motorists daily. The mob beat her and tried to drag her out of her car but she escaped and was taken to hospital. These incidents follow a surge in violence in Jerusalem and the West Bank as Palestinians wage a war of terror, targeting Israel Defence Force soldiers and Israeli civilians.
