Israeli Wounded in New Stabbing, 2 Attackers 'Neutralised'

Jerusalem: An Israeli was wounded in a new knife attack west of Jerusalem on Thursday before police shot and "neutralised" the two assailants, police said.

The male attackers had attempted to board a bus in Beit Shemesh but were prevented from doing so by passengers. They then stabbed a 25-year-old Jewish passer-by close to the bus station before being fired on by officers.

The police did not specify whether the attackers were killed or wounded.
