A fervently Orthodox Jew was stabbed to death while on his way to morning prayers in a Jerusalem neighborhood near Arab-populated areas. Police officials said the circumstances surrounding the attack suggested it was the work of militants. Soon after the killing, a Palestinian was lightly wounded in a stabbing attack in a nearby Jewish neighborhood, but officials said the two incidents appeared unconnected.
