Among the wounded are at least two people in serious condition, according to israeli medical sources.

An eyewitness to the incident, which unfolded at several locations within the city, told Haaretz website that she saw someone stab three people near a mall before he stole a car and ran over other people.

Israeli medical sources said that the number of the wounded is likely to be higher as the ramming incident took place at three separate locations.

The israeli police claimed they arrested a Palestinian from the West Bank City of al-Khalil and launched a manhunt for his nephew, accusing them of carrying out the ramming and stabbing attack.

According to the police, the suspects stole a total of three cars during their attack. (ILKHA)
