Attacker shot while trying to axe troops, IDF says

The military says in a statement that an attacker with a hatchet was shot by an officer while attempting to assault troops, referring to a suspected attack in Haifa.

The army says the suspect was a terrorist, though police are still investigating the incident.

“A short while ago, a terrorist carried out a car-ramming attack next to an army base in the north of the country,” an army statement reads. “Afterward, the terrorist exited the car and attempted to attack IDF troops with a hatchet.”
