This roped off area in the West Bank is where police say a Palestinian woman stabbed an Israeli man before being shot by security forces.

The woman was sent to the hospital where her injuries are described as severe.

Violence in Israel and the Palestinian Territories has risen in the past few months.

Attacks by Palestinians have killed 11 Israelis, while 12 Palestinians have also been killed -- a cycle of violence that many fear could trigger a renewal of full blown hostilities.
