JERUSALEM
"The terrorist was apparently neutralized. There are two wounded, in addition to the terrorist, who was shot," a spokesman for the Magen David Adom ambulance service said on Israel Radio.
The incident occurred in the Rami Levi supermarket near Maale Adumim, a large settlement east of Jerusalem.
Tensions have risen in past weeks over access to a Jerusalem holy site where al-Aqsa mosque now stands and Biblical Jewish Temples once stood.
On Monday, a Palestinian woman stabbed and lightly injured an Israeli civilian in the Etzion bloc of Jewish settlements near Jerusalem, and was then shot and wounded by security forces, the military and police said.
Recent attacks carried out by Palestinians have killed 11 Israelis. Twelve Palestinians have also been killed, including several of the assailants.
