A report from Ynet at about 8:30 this morning (Thursday) says there has been another Arab-on-Israeli knifing attack, this time at or just outside the ancient, sacred and heavily secured Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron.
An attacker is said to have charged at a group of IDF soldiers while holding what’s described as “a dud grenade” as well as brandishing a knife.
