A man driving a heavy construction vehicle has carried out an attack in Jerusalem and has been shot dead, the Israeli emergency services say.
Police say the driver rammed traffic before he was shot dead.
Eleven people are reported to have been injured.
The driver's identity is not immediately clear.
Earlier this month, a Palestinian driving a similar vehicle killed three people and wounded dozens of others in Jerusalem before being shot dead.
