This was in Eduard Gufeld’s Improving in Chess by Tactics, and for good reason. It’s a real mind boggler.

You can move the the king, capture the checking piece, or block the checking piece. However, if it’s a double check you can only move the king (as it’s impossible to block or capture two checking pieces in one move).

Yes, you are allowed to block an attack with another piece.
