A female Arab terrorist attempted to stab Israeli soldiers early Sunday afternoon at the Hassam Shoter army position in Hevron.
No Israelis were injured in the attempted attack, which reports say occurred near the Cave of the Patriarchs.
Border Patrol and IDF forces at the scene succeeded in neutralizing the terrorist. She was evacuated to a nearby hospital for treatment.
Several minutes before the attempt, a tourist was stabbed and seriously wounded between the Jewish town of Tekoa and the nearby Arab village of Beit Sahour in what police believe to be a criminal dispute.
The attempted attack on Sunday follows a terror stabbing yesterday, during Shabbat, in the central Israeli city of Ra’anana.
Three people were injured in that attack, including a 40-year-old man suffering serious wounds.
