Israeli police say security forces shot dead a Palestinian man who stabbed two Jewish young people and a police officer in East Jerusalem's Old City.
Israeli police have neutralized a Palestinian teenager who stabbed two young Israelis in Jerusalem on Saturday, then fled the scene and stabbed a female border police guard who chased him, police spokeswoman Luba al-Samri said, according to AP.
The victims suffered light injuries, Police Foreign Press spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld confirmed on Twitter.
The Palestinian man has been identified as 17-year-old Ahmad Zahir Fathi Ghazal from the West Bank, the Palestinian Health Ministry reports.
Palestinian news agency Ma'an has posted a video allegedly showing the moments after the attack when police officers started their pursuit of the attacker.
