Details of the stabbing in Lod emerge: the attacker apparently waited for an opportune moment and followed a technician who had an appointment at the couple’s house. He then stabbed the woman, who is his ex-partner, to death.

After killing her, he turned on the woman’s current partner, stabbed him and wounded him badly, but the man managed to escape and call an elevator. By the time Magen David Adom paramedics arrived at the scene, they pronounced him dead.

The attacker then tried to commit suicide by stabbing himself in the throat, Channel 2 reports. He was arrested with serious injuries from the self-inflicted wound.
