Palestinian Teen Stabs 4 On Tel Aviv Beachfront

JERUSALEM (JTA) — A Palestinian man stabbed four people in Tel Aviv in two separate attacks.

The assailant, identified by police as an 18-year-old Palestinian, was captured and arrested.

The attacks took place in two hotels along the Tel Aviv beachfront promenade, located near the U.S. embassy on the same street.

Three of the injured are in their 50s and one is 70, Magen David Adom said, and are in light condition. The injured Israelis were taken to Ichilov hospital in Tel Aviv.
