The Armon Hanatziv attack has now claimed two fatalities:
Paramedics performed CPR and tried to save the life of a 60-year-old man, but in the end were forced to pronounce him dead on the scene.
In addition, 10 people were sent to Jerusalem hospitals. One of these, a 45-year-old man, was critically wounded. He received CPR on the scene and was sent to Shaare Zedek Hospital. But he was pronounced dead in the hospital.
A 60-year-old woman and a 40-year-old woman were seriously injured with stab wounds to the upper body. They were sent to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital.
Another 60-year-old woman and a 30-year-old man were moderately injured with stab wounds to the upper body.
Three people were lightly injured and two people suffered from shock.

Responsibly covering this tumultuous time
As The Times of Israel’s political correspondent, I spend my days in the Knesset trenches, speaking with politicians and advisers to understand their plans, goals and motivations.
I'm proud of our coverage of this government's plans to overhaul the judiciary, including the political and social discontent that underpins the proposed changes and the intense public backlash against the shakeup.
