Cllr Maire Hendron said: “Knives have no place on our streets. Those responsible for this stabbing have no regards for the lives of others.
“My thoughts go out to the victim. I hope he will be able to make a recovery from the serious injuries he has sustained.
“I would also like to condemn an assault that took place in the Mountpottinger Road area of Belfast on Tuesday.
“If anybody has any information about these attacks then I would urge them to contact the Police.”
