On Wednesday evening 9 March, the Spokesperson for the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy made an appeal, “once again”, to Israelis and Palestinians, “to work together and do their utmost to immediately calm down the situation and prevent further escalation”. This appeal comes in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Tel Aviv, Petah Tikva and Jerusalem on 8 - 9 March. On Tuesday 8 March, the wave of violence saw an American tourist stabbed to death in Tel Aviv and on Wednesday 9 March a young Palestinian was killed trying to attack a soldier. In the West Bank and Jerusalem, two armed assailants opened fire and were killed by the police.
