Two wounded, 1 seriously, in terror stabbing near Jerusalem’s Old City Wednesday
[IsraelTimes] 17-year-old Paleostinian carries out attack with cleaver near Jaffa Gate, is arrested after brief chase; victims taken to hospital

Two people were maimed, including one seriously, in a terror stabbing attack on a promenade near Jerusalem’s Old City on Wednesday afternoon, police and medics said.

According to police, the alleged terrorist, a 17-year-old Paleostinian from East Jerusalem, carried out the attack with a cleaver just outside the Jaffa Gate entrance to the Old City.

The assailant, who attempted to flee the scene after tossing the knife, was arrested by officers following a brief chase, police said.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service said a 56-year-old Israeli man was seriously hurt after being stabbed in the upper body and a 17-year-old tourist was slightly hurt after sustaining a superficial stab wound to his abdomen. Another woman in her 50s was treated by medics for acute anxiety.

MDA said it took the seriously maimed man to Hadassah Hospital Mount Scopus in the capital in stable, pH balanced condition.

Graphic footage showed the terrorist stabbing people with the cleaver on the promenade.

The attack came after a Paleostinian woman tried to stab a police officer in the Old City on Monday night. Last Wednesday, a Paleostinian teenager stabbed and moderately hurt an Israeli man at a light rail station in Jerusalem, before being rubbed out by police.
