The terrorist was neutralized by fellow soldiers who opened fire at the stabber when he attacked.
“An assailant stabbed an IDF officer during a violent riot near Beit Awwa,” the IDF said in a subsequent statement. “The force responded with fire toward the assailant.”
Magen David Adom medical personnel at the scene confirmed the terrorist was dead.
