KABUL: (Middle East Press) At least 13 Israelis have been killed, with six being injured, in a stabbing attack by a Palestinian carried out on a bus in central Tel Aviv.
Israel’s Channel 2 reported the attack occurred on Wednesday on a bus on Menachem Begin Road.
Israeli police forces reportedly shot the attacker in the leg near the scene of the incident.
The wounded Israelis suffered injuries to the head and neck.
Witnesses say the attacker stabbed the bus driver, making him debilitated and unable to open the doors in order to allow passengers to escape.
