BREAKING: At Least 25 Wounded In Terror Attack In Jerusalem UPDATE: At Least One Dead
But always remember, the real danger to Mideast "peace" is some Jews building homes.
Police said that a bomb exploded outside Egged bus number 74 at a station opposite the Jerusalem Conference Center (Binyanei Ha'uma) in the center of town.
Magen David Adom relayed that there were 25 people injured. Three people were seriously injured. Israeli media reported that two of those were in critical condition.
Five people were moderately injured and the remainder lightly to moderately. MDA said that no deaths took place.
Police suspected that an explosive device inside a bag was left at the bus stop, which then exploded. Public Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch said that the explosive device was between one and two kilograms and contained shrapnel.
There are reports that the bomb was tied or placed on a lamppost and detonated remotely. Welcome to the wonderful world of IEDs in Jerusalem.
UPDATE: One confirmed death.
