An Israeli security guard was "lightly wounded" in an alleged stabbing operation at the "Giv’at Hamivtar" light rail station in occupied al-Quds, Israeli media reported on Thursday night citing Israeli occupation police.
The occupation police said a 19-year-old Palestinian who allegedly carried out the operation, identified as Daoud Atiya, was shot by another security guard, adding that he was in serious condition and transferred to a hospital.
"The suspect was neutralized by shooting and a large police force presence under the command of the commander of the Jerusalem district arrived at the location," an Israeli occupation police report confirmed.
