- Story Text: Israeli security forces on Saturday (July 22) raided the home of the Palestinian attacker who stabbed to death three Israelis and restricted movement for Palestinians from his West Bank village, the military said.
Six people died on Friday (July 21) in the bloodiest spate of Israeli-Palestinian violence for years.
Three Israelis were stabbed to death in a Jewish settlement in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, hours after three Palestinians were killed in violence prompted by Israel's installation of metal detectors at entry points to the Noble Sanctuary-Temple Mount compound in Jerusalem's walled Old City.
Palestinian worshippers had clashed with Israeli security forces before Friday's attack.
Tensions had mounted for days as Palestinians hurled rocks and Israeli police used stun grenades after the detectors were placed outside the sacred venue following the killing of two Israeli policemen at the site, known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary and to Jews as Temple Mount. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
