Police shot dead the suspected attacker, who they say was from the city of Salfit in the occupied West Bank.
At least two people have been killed and two others wounded in a stabbing attack near Tel Aviv, Israeli officials say, with police reporting a Palestinian suspect was “neutralised” and later died in hospital.
The stabbings took place during morning rush hour near a gas station and a park in the city of Holon in the south of Tel Aviv, Israel’s ambulance service said on Sunday.
The stabbing suspect, a Palestinian from the occupied West Bank, was killed by a police officer who arrived at the scene, the police said in a statement without elaborating.
“The terrorist was quickly neutralised by one of our officers at the scene and prevented him from carrying out an even worse attack,” police spokesman Eli Levi said on Israel’s Channel 12.
