Islamic Jihad Claims Responsibility for Tel Aviv bombing

JERUSALEM (Reuters) -- The Islamic Jihad militant group claimed responsibility on Friday for a bombing in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv, which caused more than 30 injuries, weeks after Israeli and Palestinian leaders declared a truce.

"Islamic Jihad claims responsibility (for the bombing) in Tel Aviv," a spokesman told Reuters. "This is a martydom operation that shows we are not committed to the cease-fire because Israel is continuing to kill and arrest Palestinians."
