Palestinian shot dead after stabbing Israeli

  • 9 years ago
Police said Israeli soldiers shot dead a Palestinian who had stabbed an Israeli man at a petrol station in the West Bank.

The stabbing victim was taken to hospital but was not seriously hurt.

Peace talks have been stalled since April 2014, leaving inter-communal violence simmering in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Last month’s killing of a Palestinian toddler and his father in an arson attack has heightened tensions in the region.
