Palestinian held after trying to stab soldier in West Bank
2014-12-23
[IsraelTimes] An armed Paleostinian man was detained at a checkpoint in the West Bank Monday morning after attempting to stab an IDF soldier, the army said in a statement.
Was he one of the ones who was striking at the checkpoint?
The incident took place at the Nitzanei Oz crossing near the Paleostinian city of Tulkarem, and there were no injuries. Forces at the scene stopped and apprehended the suspect and he was taken for further investigation,? the IDF said.

The foiled attack came during a period of tensions between Israelis and Paleostinians and a wave of unrest in the West Bank and in East Jerusalem.

On Sunday, two Paleostinians with knives were detained by the army near the West Bank settlement of Adam, north of Jerusalem.

In a separate incident Sunday, Paleostinians hurling rocks at cars in the West Bank lightly injured a 4-year-old Israeli boy. The army said that incident took place at an intersection near the West Bank city of Bethlehem, south of Jerusalem. The boy, who was struck in the head by shards of glass from the shattered window of the car he was in, was taken to a clinic in the nearby settlement of Efrat, Israel Radio reported.
