These are images of moment a bloodied Israeli soldier lies wounded beside a knife-wielding Palestinian who was shot dead after disguising himself as a member of the Press amid rising tensions in the region, the man dressed as a news photographer and then stabbed and wounded an Israeli soldier.
As soon as his guise was uncovered, the man in black jeans and trainers was shot dead by Israeli troops.
Palestinians overran Joseph’s Tomb overnight, attacking it with petrol bombs. This is not the first time the tomb has come under attack. Palestinians tried to set fire to it again last year and virtually destroyed the site in 2000 after Israeli guards withdrew amid clashes.
Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas criticised the fire at the religious site in the northern city of Nablus.
