Palestinians carried out five stabbing attacks in Jerusalem and the West Bank on Saturday, Israeli authorities have said.

Four of the attackers were killed.

In Jerusalem, a police spokesperson said a 16-year-old Palestinian was shot and killed by officers after he tried to stab them.

At a checkpoint between Jerusalem and the West Bank, a policeman escaped uninjured after a Palestinian attempted to stab him. The attacker was shot and wounded, but was killed after pulling out a second knife when the officer approached to treat him.
