Israeli teenager stabbed to death in West Bank

A teenage girl has been killed in a stabbing attack in the West Bank in which the suspected Palestinian attacker was shot, Israel‘s national rescue service says.

The girl was stabbed along with two other Israelis at a bus stop outside the West Bank settlement of Alon Shvut. The attacker was shot and wounded, the service said.

The incident occurred shortly after a similar stabbing gravely wounded an Israeli soldier at a Tel Aviv train station.

The stabbings are the latest in a wave of violence that has shaken Israel.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed a harsh response to the violence.
