Israeli police are investigating a stabbing attack at a shopping center in northern Israel, which left at least two people wounded, one severely. The incident occurred at the Hutzot Karmiel Mall in Karmiel, with video footage showing bystanders providing medical care to one of the victims. The suspect, who was not named, was killed by police, and the incident is being considered a possible terror attack.
Authorities suspect a Palestinian Israeli of carrying out the attack and have conducted search operations near an Arab village. The escalation in tensions between Israel and Palestinians has been linked to ongoing conflicts in the West Bank and Gaza, where Israeli forces have been conducting raids. This has resulted in a significant number of casualties among Palestinians.
Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh reported from Ramallah that the issues in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza are interconnected. She pointed to a cycle of violence and despair among Palestinians due to Israeli policies and actions that impact their daily lives. The ongoing conflicts have fueled anger and frustration, leading to attacks like the stabbing incident in Karmiel.
Meanwhile, Gaza’s Ministry of Health has reported a high number of casualties from the conflict, with thousands killed and injured since the war began. The ongoing violence and instability in the region have further heightened tensions and increased the risk of further attacks and casualties.
