Israeli police have arrested 42 people in connection with an attack on a synagogue in East Jerusalem in which seven people were killed and at least three more injured. In a second incident in Jerusalem, police said a 13-year-old Palestinian boy was behind a shooting that seriously wounded a father and son. Both attacks have come after nine Palestinians were killed during an Israeli military raid in the occupied West Bank. Aaron David Miller is a Senior Fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and a former US State Department adviser on Arab-Israeli negotiations. He says this latest cycle of violence is "truly bleak", and what is needed is a third party intermediary but neither side seems willing to hold talks.
