JERUSALEM (AP) — The latest developments in a wave of Israeli-Palestinian violence (all times local).

11:30 a.m.

The Israeli military says a Palestinian man has stabbed a military officer in the West Bank and that Israeli forces shot the assailant.

The military says the Israeli officer was injured lightly in the stabbing. It says the Palestinian assailant was taken to a hospital. There were no details on his condition.

The army says the attack took place Tuesday in the West Bank village of Beit Awwa near Hebron during a "violent riot" of Palestinian demonstrators.

The Palestinian foreign minister says U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is coming to the region on a surprise visit to try and bring an end to the monthlong wave of violence.

Riyad Malki told Palestinian radio that Ban will arrive later Tuesday and meet with both Israeli and Palestinian leaders. The visit comes amid a spate of deadly attacks that have sparked fears of another full-fledged Palestinian uprising.

Over the past month, nine Israelis have been killed in Palestinian attacks, most of them stabbings. In that time, 41 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire, including 20 labeled by Israel as attackers, and the rest in clashes with Israeli troops. An Eritrean migrant died after being shot and beaten by a mob that mistakenly believed he was a Palestinian attacker.

Ban has issued a video message ahead of the visit calling for calm on both sides. He said he understood the Palestinian frustration but that violence would only harm their legitimate aspirations. He said to the Israelis that he understood their concerns and fears due to the security deterioration, but added there was no military solution to the situation.

9:15 a.m.

Israel has arrested a top Hamas official in the West Bank, accusing him of inciting recent violence.

The military says it arrested Hassan Yousef on Tuesday near Ramallah. It marks the most high-profile arrest since a wave of unrest swept through the region a month ago.

The military said Yousef had been "actively instigating and inciting terrorism" by encouraging attacks against Israelis. Military spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner says, "Hamas' leaders cannot expect to propagate violence and terror from the comfort of their living rooms and pulpits of their mosques."

Yousef is a co-founder of Hamas whose son, Mosab, later spied for Israel between 1997 and 2007.

The Israeli military has demolished the home of a Palestinian who killed an Israeli woman last year.

The measure is one of the recent steps Israel has undertaken to counter a wave of attacks that have killed nine Israelis in the past month, mostly in stabbings. At least 41 Palestinians have been killed, including 20 identified by Israeli authorities as attackers. The rest died in clashes with Israeli forces.

The military says forces demolished the residence of Maher Hashlamoun early Tuesday in Hebron. Last year, Hashlamoun rammed his car into 25-year-old Dalia Lemkus in the West Bank and stabbed her several times. Hashlamon was shot and killed.

Hashlamoun's wife told Palestinian radio that soldiers evacuated their three story building and demolished the third floor apartment where her family lived.

Israeli military spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner says the demolition "sends a clear message that there is a personal price to pay when you are involved in terror."
