An Israeli man was stabbed to death by a Palestinian on Tuesday morning.

Eviatar Borovsky, 30, from Yitzhar, was attacked at Tapuach Junction in the north of the West Bank.

According to sources, after Mr Borovsky was killed, the Palestinian man from Tul Karn took the Israeli’s firearm to shoot at border police.

The police retaliated, wounding the attacker who was evacuated to Beilinson hospital in Petah Tikva. He was then taken in to custody. Mr Borovsky, father of five children, was declared dead when Magen David Adom arrived at the scene.
