(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Katz - Sgt. Ma'ayan Naim, a 19-year-old female soldier, was killed and 34 wounded when a bomb exploded behind a bus stop in Tel Aviv. Hospital officials said that most of the injuries were caused by metal shards packed into the bomb. The Al Aksa Martyrs' Brigades from Nablus claimed responsibility for the attack. "The terrorist did not intend to just hurt Jews, but he went out to kill as many people as possible," said Sami Mcarah, an Israeli-Arab resident of Jaffa who was wounded by shrapnel. "I used to be opposed to the security fence, but now I support it, and I'm going to start a foundation to support the fence's construction," Mcarah told Israel Radio.
