Suicide Attack in Gaza Wounds 6 Israelis.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - A Palestinian suicide bomber blew himself near a major road used by Israeli settlers and soldiers in the southern Gaza Strip on Tuesday, wounding at least six Israelis. A Palestinian bystander also was hurt, according to Palestinian rescue officials.
The Hamas militant group claimed responsibility in an electronic message sent to The Associated Press, identifying the bomber as Omar Tabach, 21, from a village outside the nearby Khan Younis refugee camp.
The attack occurred shortly after Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas arrived in Gaza in a bid to persuade Palestinian militants to halt their attacks on Israelis.
