This chilling footage shows the shocking moment a Palestinian woman lunged at an Israeli security guard with a knife in broad daylight

The guard was standing at the entrance to the West Bank settlement of Beitar Illit, six miles south of Jerusalem, when the woman casually strolled up to him.

The woman, who was wearing a black abaya and hijab, was asked for her identification to enter the predominately Jewish city.

As the guard started flicking through her papers, the Palestinian woman reached for a knife from inside her bag and tried to stab him.

The guard, who was named locally as Yishai Kreitenberger, 33, was taken to Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem with minor injuries.

He later described the events leading up to the attack.

He told the Algemeiner Journal: 'I was standing at the city's guard post when I noticed the terrorist walking towards me…she was tense, looking around [as though] she was unfamiliar with the place.

'As she approached, she presented her green Palestinian ID card.

'So I told her she could not enter. While I was talking, I saw her putting her hand in her purse. [When] I asked her why she was [doing that], she took out a knife and managed to scratch me with it.'

The woman, named locally as 22-year-old Hilwa Salim Darwish, was shot in the street and taken to Hadassah University Medical Center in Jerusalem's Ein Karem.

After she was shot it was reported a number of Palestinians from the village across the road began to protest.

The municipality then ordered Palestinian workers in the city to head home for the day over fears a riot would break out.
