A suspected terror stabbing attack at a mall in the northern city of Karmiel on Wednesday left one person in critical condition and another seriously wounded.
The assailant was shot and killed at the scene. Police and emergency teams rushed to the location, and an investigation is underway.
Magen David Adom (MDA) emergency medical service reported that its teams are fighting for the life of the critically injured victim. Paramedic Ran Moskowitz described the scene upon arrival. "We saw two men in their 20s lying on the ground with stab wounds. We began administering emergency care, including stopping the bleeding and performing resuscitation on the man in critical condition," he said.
Police have not ruled out the possibility of other terrorists in the area, located in the Lower Galilee region. "We are unfortunately familiar with these kinds of attacks," said Police Spokesperson Eli Levy. "We cannot rule out the possibility that the terrorist had help or that there are others still at large."
