A 25-year-old Israeli was stabbed and moderately-to-seriously wounded in a terror attack in the West Bank settlement of Ariel on Sunday evening.

MDA paramedics transported the man to the hospital after providing him with initial treatment at the scene of the attack on Route 5 at the Ariel junction. According to the IDF, security forces were searching for the assailant, who fled the scene.

Following the attack, The Mayor trusted the security forces, but that he would make sure that the IDF was sufficiently responding to the security needs of Jews at the junction where the attack took place.

"It saddens me that Tel Aviv has become places where innocent Jews are attacked. Unfortunately the unending incitement from the side of the Palestinian forces.

Earlier on Sunday, a terrorist was shot and killed while trying to stab Border Police officers at the entrance to the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron.

The attempted attack in Hebron followed an attack in Gush Etzion on Sunday morning in which a Palestinian terrorist stabbed and moderately wounded an Israeli civilian.

The incident began when Palestinians hurled rocks at an Israeli vehicle near the settlement of Metzad. The driver exited his vehicle and was stabbed in the chest by a terrorist.
