Emergency medical teams gave first aid to a 28-year-old Chareidi man who was stabbed in the upper back, in the Old City of Jerusalem.

The attack happened on Ma’aleh Haldaya street (it was originally reported that the attack happened at Jaffa Gate).

The attack happened just before 2 PM on Friday.

Police search the area for the terrorist. He ran into a bakery on the street, and police have arrested everyone inside the store.

Using the Old City’s security camera system, the police identified the terrorist. It is unclear at this point if the other suspects who were arrested were helping hide the terrorist or not.

After treatment, the victim’s condition has been changed from moderate to light, and is being transported to Shaarei Tzedek hospital.
