Police started setting up a tall concrete wall at a small area of the East Talpiot neighborhood in Jerusalem on Sunday in an effort to stop the constant barrage of Molotov cocktails being thrown from the nearby Jabel Mukaber.
The most serious of the attacks was on Wednesday when two terrorists boarded bus 78 and started shooting and stabbing everyone on board.
In light of the recent wave of violence, with most of the terrorists coming from East Jerusalem and quite a few of them from Jabel Mukaber, Israel's Security Cabinet authorized the Israel Police to impose a partial closure at flashpoints in the capital.
The Cabinet also authorized deploying more troops to the city - including increasing and expanding the police's operational capabilities and recruiting 300 additional security guards for public transportation.
