According to the Jerusalem Post the Israeli police arrested two of the attacker's brothers, who suspected saw him leaving the house with a knife. Although the police believe he acted alone, it is investigating whether the brothers were aware of his intentions.
The United Nations’ envoy for Middle East peace, Tor Wennesland, condemned the violence, which he said was “the seventh stabbing attack against Israelis this month.”
“I am increasingly alarmed by the continued violence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and Israel that is taking place on a daily basis,” the UN envoy said in a statement and according to AFP.
