Police officer in Jerusalem stabbed after man shot and killed

This morning, while we were working outside our hotel in Jerusalem, we heard a series of close gunshots, and quickly went inside.

After that, we noticed a hurt man being taken to an ambulance at the petrol station close by.

We are still learning more information, but it appears that the man who was hurt is a police officer and he was stabbed.

The person who was believed to have attacked someone was shot and killed by the police near St George’s Cathedral. This happened not very far from where the incident began, after the person ran down the road.

We don’t know for sure who he is, but according to local reporters, he was from the Mount of Olives area in East Jerusalem.

There were a lot of security guards after the attack. They came in cars and on horses, but now the streets are peaceful again.

Things like this happen often in Jerusalem, but it is happening more frequently now because of the ongoing war.
