A police spokesman said at around 11:40am, a Palestinian woman armed with a knife approached an ultra-Orthodox man on Sultan Suleiman street and tried to stab him several times, but he managed to escape her.

The attacker then approached a light rail station near the Damascus Gate on the corner of Bar Lev and Sultan Suleiman streets and stabbed a man, 31, in his hand.

 

The wounded man was treated by Magen David Adom paramedics on the scene and then taken to the nearby Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem's Mount Scopus in light condition. He was discharged on Saturday evening.
