In Tel Aviv, six Israelis have been stabbed with knives or hacked with axes by Arabs in a murderous rage: Six Israelis hurt in two separate attacks in Tel Aviv area.

Three people suffered light injuries when a knife-wielding Arab man stabbed them on the No. 10 bus on Yeffet Street in Jaffa late Monday afternoon. Police were searching for the assailant, who managed to flee the scene.

The suspect is said to be an Arab in his 20s, and was seen wearing a brown coat.

In a separate incident earlier in the day, a Palestinian man wounded three Israelis, two men and a woman, with an ax outside an army base in a Tel Aviv suburb.

The woman, a 32-year-old Ramat Gan resident, underwent surgery and is said to be in moderate-to-serious condition in the Sheba Medical Center, Tel Hashomer.

Another man, a 50-year-old resident of Bnei Brak, is hospitalized with moderate injuries, and a third man, a 29-year-old resident of Ramat Gan, suffered light injuries and has been released from the hospital.
