Israeli security forces shot and killed a Palestinian man on Monday, alleging he attempted to carry out a stabbing attack at the Tunnels checkpoint south of Jerusalem. The incident occurred when soldiers intercepted a young man who, according to their account, tried to approach them with a knife. The suspect was killed in the shooting. The Israeli military stated that its forces acted to prevent a terrorist attack. Palestinian sources, however, confirmed the death but disputed the stabbing attempt narrative, describing the event as an extrajudicial killing.
