An Israeli man was moderately injured when he was stabbed in a brawl in Ma’ale Adumim early Friday, according to police.
There were no indications the stabbing was part of a wave of Palestinian terror attacks that has seen dozens of Israelis killed and wounded since October.
Police said the man, 23, took part in a late-night brawl at Yahalom Square in the West Bank city, which lies east of Jerusalem. The site is close to the Ma’ale Adumim Mall.
He was stabbed in his upper body, apparently by another participant in the street fight.
There were no other reports of injuries from the incident.
The man was taken to Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center by a Magen David Adom ambulance.
