jerusalemDespite new security measures launched in Arab areas of the city, attacks have continued in some parts of Jerusalem.

On Wednesday, the Police blocked entrances to Jabal Mukaber, a district that was home to three men accused of killing three Israelis on Tuesday.

But hours later, the Police said they shot dead a Palestinian who stabbed an Israeli woman at Jerusalem’s main bus station.

A Palestinian also tried to stab a policeman near the walled Old City. He too was shot dead by the Police.

Israeli authorities say since the beginning of October, seven Israelis have been killed and dozens wounded in shooting and stabbing attacks.

The Palestinian Health Ministry also said at least 30 Palestinians have been killed, including assailants, and hundreds have been injured.
