The shooting follows a declaration of a third intifada by Hamas
A Palestinian woman has been reportedly shot and injured after an alleged stabbing attempt.
Amateur footage of the incident, which is reported to have taken place in the city of Afula, was posted on social media.
An Israeli military spokesperson said a Palestinian woman attempted to stab an Israeli security guard, Ma'an News reports.
Local media reported she had been suffered "moderate" injuries during the shooting while the Israel Defence Forces said she had been "neutralised".
