A 26-year-old Israeli woman has been stabbed to death in the occupied West Bank, hours after another knife attack wounded a soldier in Tel Aviv.

The latest incident occurred near the Alon Shvut Jewish settlement. The assailant was shot by a security guard.

A Palestinian from the West Bank city of Nablus has been arrested in connection with the attack in Tel Aviv.

The stabbings come at a time of heightened tension between Israel and the Palestinians.

At the weekend, Israeli Arabs threw stones at police in mainly Arab towns in Israel after police shot dead a young Arab man, who had attacked them with a knife.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to crack down on the violence.

'Serious condition'

Monday's West Bank attack took place at the entrance to the Alon Shvut settlement.

The attacker in the West Bank crashed his car then got out to stab those at a bus stop

The attacker tried to run over people in his car, hit a concrete barrier then got out of the vehicle, reports said.

He then stabbed the woman along with two other Israelis at a bus stop. The two injured men were taken to hospital.

The attacker was shot several times by a security guard and was taken from the scene in a serious condition, emergency services said.

Earlier reports had said the woman was a 14-year-old girl.

The attack took place close to where three Israeli students were abducted and killed by Palestinian militants in June, an incident which led to the revenge killing in Jerusalem of a Palestinian teenager by Jewish extremists.

Tensions then escalated into a 50-day conflict between Israel and Palestinian Islamist group Hamas in Gaza.

Deteriorating security

Monday's earlier incident in Tel Aviv took place at a busy train station and was described by police as a "terror attack".

The earlier attack in Tel Aviv left an Israeli soldier wounded

The soldier was critically wounded.

BBC Middle East correspondent Kevin Connolly says there has been no real pattern to the recent spate of attacks - the attackers appear to have acted suddenly, meaning there is no advance intelligence to forewarn the authorities.

In two other attacks in the past three weeks, Palestinian militants rammed vehicles into pedestrians in Jerusalem, killing four people. Both attackers were shot dead.

A Palestinian suspected of shooting and wounding a prominent right-wing activist, Rabbi Yehuda Glick, in Jerusalem at the end of last month was also shot dead in a gun battle with Israeli police.

Our correspondent says that many Israelis feel the security situation has been deteriorating, with the summer conflict in Gaza, the dispute over rights of prayer at a holy site in Jerusalem and continuing Jewish settlement in East Jerusalem all factors in a worsening atmosphere.

maybe i worded wrong, but a lot people are thinking that israeli only doing bad stuff when palestines doing basically the same 

Literally every day someone gets killed there on both sides, but Christian Simon only worries about the "chosen nation". Even his Christian Arab brothers are less worthy.

Well, you only post about palestine site, so you better be quiet

Palestinians are occupying Israeli land? Palestinians are demolishing Israeli houses? Palestinians are controlling Israeli air, water and borders? Palestinians are constantly expanding their land on Israeli land for illegal settlements? Palestinian prisons are full with Israeli children? Palestinian soldiers and tanks are on Israeli streets? Palestinians are about to destroy some of the oldest synagogues to replace with their own holy temple? No, they are not the same.

Yes I post about Palestinian side(not site) because it's invisible in Western media. And you are so rude! I was about to convert to your religion and talk in tongues, but no! You told me to be quiet.
