2 Dead in Two Terrorist Blasts in Israel
(CNN) Less than an hour apart, a pair of suicide bombings Tuesday killed two Israelis and wounded at least a dozen others. In response to the terror attacks, Israeli officials delayed Tuesday's planned release of 76 Palestinian prisoners. In the first attack, which occurred around 9:15 a.m., a suicide bomber detonated himself inside a small grocery store at a shopping mall in the central Israeli town of Rosh Ha'ayin, killing one person and wounding at least 10 others. The second bombing took place at a bus stop along a major highway near the West Bank Jewish settlement of Ariel, police said. One Israeli was killed at the site. Two others were critically wounded, authorities said.
