A Palestinian has been shot dead after wounding two Israelis in an attack in southern Israel, Israeli police have said.

Amjad Gundi, a 20-year-old man from the West Bank village of Yatta, stabbed a soldier and tried to take his weapon in the town of Kiryat Gat before being shot dead by police, a spokesman said.

Earlier, a Palestinian woman stabbed an Israeli man who then shot and wounded her in Jerusalem’s Old City.

The incidents come amid an upsurge of violence in Israel and the West Bank.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has postponed until further notice a trip to Germany planned for Thursday, citing the security situation.
