Israeli forces killed a Palestinian who attempted to stab a soldier at a crossing in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday, the army said, with no injuries reported among Israelis.
"A short while ago an assailant, armed with a knife, attempted to stab an (Israeli) soldier at a crossing adjacent to Tulkarem," an army statement said.
"Responding to the imminent threat, forces fired towards the attacker, resulting in his death."
