Israel launched a major military operation Tuesday in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin that killed at least nine Palestinians and left at least 40 more people wounded, Palestinian health officials said,

Four people were wounded in a stabbing attack on Tuesday in Tel Aviv while the attacker was killed, Israeli emergency service Magen David Adom said. The police said an initial investigation "revealed that a terrorist armed with a knife stabbed three civilians on Nahalat Binyamin Street and one civilian on Gruzenberg Street".

Four people were injured in a stabbing attack late Tuesday in central Tel Aviv. The attacker, a Moroccan-born U.S. permanent resident, was shot and "neutralized" by a civilian passerby as he attempted to flee the scene.

The action came a day after President Donald Trump said he will lift sanctions on ultranationalist Israeli settlers who attacked Palestinian villages.

A Palestinian terrorist stabbed an Israeli in broad daylight in Tel Aviv on Saturday, in a terrorist attack that concluded with the terrorist's elimination by an armed citizen. Police, who investigate the incident as a terrorist attack, said that the terrorist was a 19-year-old Palestinian from the West Bank city of Tulkarem.
