In Jerusalem, two Palestinian girls attacked and slightly wounded an elderly man with scissors before a policeman shot them both, killing one. The 70-year-old victim turned out to be Palestinian.
In the occupied West Bank, a Palestinian man stabbed and killed an Israeli at a petrol station.
A Palestinian was also shot dead near the West Bank city of Nablus after approaching soldiers with a knife, according to the military.
On Sunday, an Israeli woman was stabbed to death and three Palestinian attackers were killed in a series of flashpoints in the West Bank.
The incidents are the latest in an eight-week surge of stabbings, shooting and deliberate car rammings that have claimed more than 100 lives.
The US Secretary of State John Kerry arrives on Tuesday for a visit to Israel and the Palestinian territories in a bid to stem the violence.
