One day after a bomb exploded aboard an Israeli bus in a Tel Aviv suburb seconds after it was evacuated a policeman posted at the entrance to a West Bank community was stabbed in the back by an assailant who escaped. The wounded man was treated by paramedics and transferred to a hospital where he remains in moderate and stable condition. A doctor reported the 6-inch blade that was embedded in the victim's back narrowly missed his heart and other vital organs. The incident took place outside the community of Adam, located on land Israel acquired in the 1967 war which the Palestinians claim for their future state, and near Ramallah, the Palestinian administrative capital. Later that day, Israeli soldiers shot and seriously wounded a Palestinian man caught planting explosives along the border between Israel and the Gaza Strip. On Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu noted that 150 attempted terror attacks have been averted by security forces since the beginning of the year.
