"Rare Attack in Israel: One Killed, Several Injured in Haifa Stabbing"

A devastating stabbing attack occurred at a bus station in Haifa, Israel, resulting in the death of a 70-year-old man and injuries to at least four others, including a teenage boy and two women ¹. The assailant, identified as an Israeli Druze man from the town of Shfaram, was shot dead by security personnel at the scene.

According to reports, the attacker had recently returned from abroad, and the motives behind the attack are still unclear ². However, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has condemned the attack, linking it to ongoing tensions with Hamas, which described the incident as a 'natural response' to Israeli actions against Palestinians ¹.

The attack occurred amid a strained ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, following a failed extension of a hostage agreement. This incident marks a resurgence of violence after a notable lull during the Gaza truce ¹.
