Israel: May 25, 2001

Two Lebanese civilians were wounded on the Israeli border for either trying to climb the fence or raising Hizbollah flags on the fence. In northern Israel, a car bomb went off, killing the two bombers in the car, and wounding twelve Israelis at a nearby bus stop. Palestinian terrorists (Islamic Jihad) took credit for the attack. Earlier in the day a Hamas suicide bomber attacked an Israeli army position, but managed to only kill himself. No one else was hurt. Another Palestinian bomb was found (and disarmed) alongside a road near an Israeli checkpoint.
