A young Palestinian woman attempted to stab a police officer at the Temple Mount complex in Jerusalem on Thursday morning.
The woman, a 27-year-old resident of Bethlehem, ran toward the officer screaming "God is Great" before she attacked him with a 30 centimeter-long knife.
Other officers at the site managed to restrain the woman, and took her into custody, ending the incident without injury.
A preliminary investigation at the Minorities Department in the Jerusalem police revealed the woman intended to stab the officer to avenge the death of the husband. It is as yet unclear who he was and under which circumstance he died.
