Israeli security forces shot dead three Palestinians who carried out shooting and stabbing attacks in which an Israeli border policewoman was killed in Jerusalem on Friday, police said.
Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attacks, the group’s Amaq news agency said.
The attacks occurred simultaneously in two areas near the Damascus gate of Jerusalem’s walled old city.
At one scene, two Palestinians were shot dead after opening fire at and trying to stab a group of Israeli police officers, police said. At the other, a Palestinian fatally stabbed a border policewoman before being shot dead by police.
