'This is a vandal. This is a terrorist, kill him, kill him!'

MEE contributor, photojournalist Faiz Abu Rmeleh, was at the scene shortly following this morning's double stabbing in Jerusalem, after which police shot dead the 16-year-old Palestinian attacker. 

“For three hours, the police closed the street, preventing the Red Crescent ambulances from reaching the 16-year-old [attacker] Ishaq Badran.

"This meant that [the ambulances] were unable to provide him with any treatment or even take him to the hospital. [The police] only allowed them [the paramedics] to reach Ishaq after they were sure he was dead. Meanwhile, they attacked photographers who were there.

"At the same spot [just outside Damascus Gate], settlers also created three false alarms, telling the police that there was an Arab Palestinian [Palestinian citizen of Israel] who intended to attack two of them.

"Other settlers shouted at Palestinians passing by: 'This is a vandal. This is a terrorist, kill him, kill him!'"
