Four people were wounded in a stabbing on Nahalat Binyamin Street in Tel Aviv on Tuesday night, with moderate to light injuries, Hebrew media reported.

The motive is unclear, though there is suspicion of a terrorist attack. The attacker was shot by an armed female civilian at the scene.

The incident was reportedly ongoing as police were searching for possible accomplices.

The attacker has been identified as a 29-year-old Moroccan national who held a U.S. green card and entered Israel illegally three days earlier on a tourist visa.

On Saturday, a Palestinian terrorist stabbed a man at the intersection of Levontin and Mikveh Yisrael streets in Tel Aviv.

The 27-year-old victim was taken to Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center (Ichilov Hospital) with a wound to the head area. His condition was variously described as moderate and serious.

A passerby shot and killed the attacker, reportedly Salah Yahya, 19, from Tulkarem in Samaria, who was within the Green Line illegally.
