Four Israelis were injured on Sunday afternoon when a Palestinian teenager stabbed them in Tel Aviv city.

According to Israel’s Channel 7 an 18-year-old Palestinian citizen from Nablus city in the West Bank was arrested after he carried out a stabbing attack near the Leonardo Beach Hotel in Hayarkon Street where he apparently worked.

It added that three men and one woman sustained light injuries in the attack and were taken to the Tel Aviv Sourasky Hospital.

The Israeli police initially announced that the background for the incident was unclear but a later statement said the “investigation revealed that the attack was carried out for nationalistic motives.”
