The army thwarted an attempted stabbing attack Monday morning near the West Bank settlement of Alfei Menashe, the Defense Ministry said.
Magen David Adom paramedics attended to the man before he was evacuated to Meir Hospital in the Israeli town of Kfar Saba for further treatment.
On Sunday evening a Palestinian man turned himself in to the Palestinian security forces claiming responsibility for the attack, Channel 10 reported.
A Palestinian woman stabbed a security guard at the entrance to Betar Illit Sunday morning, lightly wounding a security guard, before she was shot and wounded.
Two hours earlier, a Palestinian rammed his car into Israelis at a bus stop in the northern West Bank, leaving two Israelis seriously injured and two others lightly wounded.
