New York City’s mayor, Bill De Blasio, said attacks by Palestinians against Israelis "must end," during a visit to Israel's Holocaust memorial Yad Vashem in Jerusalem on Sunday.
De Blasio landed in Israel on Saturday for a three-day visit which he described as a solidarity mission at a difficult time, reported Haaretz.
During the first day of his visit, Blasio called for an end to the "unconscionable and unacceptable" violence.
