A stabbing attack in the Nahalat Binyamin area of Tel Aviv left two Israelis injured before the attacker, identified as Kadi Abdul Aziz, was neutralized by an off-duty policewoman. The attack, which occurred in two locations on Nahalat Binyamin and Kalisher streets, caused significant panic but ended with minimal casualties thanks to swift intervention.
According to initial investigations, the assailant, an American citizen, entered Israel three days ago. Reports suggest he waited until the evening to carry out the attack.
Off-Duty Policewoman Prevents a Larger Tragedy
The quick actions of an off-duty police officer at the scene were instrumental in preventing what could have been a far more devastating incident. Using her firearm, she neutralized the attacker within moments, safeguarding the crowded area from further harm.
