Terror bombing in Tel Aviv during Purim vigil kills three
A blast at a downtown Tel Aviv cafe on Purim killed the bomber and two others and injured 42. Hamas claimed responsibility in a radio call. The attack, timed amid heightened U.S. and regional alert, followed Israeli plans earlier this week to break ground for a Jewish neighborhood in east Jerusalem. Witnesses described a large crowd, with a baby and two preschoolers among the injured, as police moved in near City Hall.
