A foreign attacker stabbed five people in Tel Aviv before being shot dead, Israeli authorities said, according to AFP.
“A terrorist with a knife started stabbing people on Nahalat Binyamin Street, wounding four civilians” before hurting a fifth person nearby, police said. Police identified the attacker as a 28-year-old foreigner who was shot by security forces.
Without claiming responsibility, Hamas in a statement praised the attack as a “heroic stabbing operation” that showed resistance to Israel was “increasing”.
