An attacker stabbed and wounded an Israeli soldier in the northern town of Afula, the fourth in a wave of knife attacks on Thursday, police and the army said.

"Terrorist stabs Israeli in Afula. Victim moderately injured," the army said on Twitter. A police statement said the victim was a soldier and described the assailant as a "member of a minority," the usual formal term for an Arab.

Authorities said the suspect was arrested
