An Israeli police officer was stabbed and lightly injured on Thursday in the Jordan Valley.

A female Palestinian approached the officer and stabbed him in the shoulder outside the village of al-Auja in the Jordan Valley, Israeli media reported.

The media said that the Zionist officer was evacuated for treatment and that the Palestinian attacker was subdued.

The occupied territories have been, since October 1, rocked by a wave of operations against Zionists in retaliation of the Israeli repressive measures against the Palestinians across the West Bank and especially in al-Quds.

Zionist settlers backed by occupation forces have been repeatedly storming the holy al-Aqsa Mosque, sparking Palestinian anger.

However the occupation forces have been brutally attacking the Palestinians under the pretext of staging stabbing attacks.
