Abbas seeks US support in reaching peace deal ... Israeli police say a Palestinian bulldozer driver has been shot dead in Jerusalem after he rammed his vehicle into cars, injuring over a dozen people.
Jerusalem's police chief was quoted as saying that "the terrorist was neutralised very quickly". The attack near the landmark King David Hotel in central Jerusalem was the second such incident this month. On July 2, a Palestinian man killed three people and wounded 30 others when he rammed a bulldozer into a bus and cars on a busy Jerusalem street before being shot dead. Meanwhile, Israeli President Shimon Peres and his Palestinian counterpart Mahmoud Abbas met for talks on strengthening the peace process. At a joint press conference, the two leaders called for the release of Israeli soldier Gilad Schalit who was abducted by Hamas two years ago.
