Film captures moment Palestinian stabbers driven off by shopkeeper

Security camera footage shows the owner of a store targeted in a Palestinian stabbing attack using a shopping trolley to prevent two attackers from entering.

During the incident attack in the settlement of Beit Horon, north-west of Jerusalem, the two assailants stabbed two Israeli women.

One Israeli woman, 23-year-old Shlomit Krigman, died of injuries according to a Jerusalem hospital.

Another Israeli woman suffered minor injuries before a security guard shot both dead.

The attack is the third stabbing inside an Israeli settlement since last week.

Ms Krigman is the latest fatality in four months of Palestinian attacks – mostly stabbings, shootings and also car-ramming assaults – that have killed 26 people on the Israeli side.

At least 149 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire, including 104 said by Israel to be attackers.
