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.
