Local media reported the suspect was a Palestinian from east Jerusalem. Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid said: “Let all those who wish us evil know that they will pay a price for any harming of civilians. “Jerusalem is our capital and a center of tourism for all religions. Police forces and the IDF are working to restore calm and the feeling of security to the city.” Palestinian militant factions in Gaza praised the attack, however did not claim responsibility for it. Terror group Hamas said the attack was “a natural response to the occupation’s daily crimes against our people, our country and major Muslim and Christian sites.” The suspected Palestinian attack comes just a week after violence flared between Israel and militants in Gaza. It comes a week after the worst outbreak of hostilities in more than a year, when Israeli jets pounded the narrow coastal strip in what the military said was a pre-emptive attack aimed at preventing an imminent threat to Israel.
