| Description | A Palestinian mother of two has blown herself up at the main border crossing between Israel and the Gaza Strip, killing four Israelis and wounding seven people.
The militant Islamic group Hamas and the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades claimed joint responsibility for the suicide bombing, which they said was to avenge Israel's killing of Palestinians, and vowed to escalate attacks.
Hamas, the main group behind a campaign of suicide bombings, said it sent a woman for the first time because of growing Israeli security "obstacles" facing its male bombers.
Smaller militant groups have already deployed female bombers against Israel several times. |
