JERUSALEM – Twenty people were injured Friday in an attack on a wedding hall in northern Israel, Israeli radio reports said.
Army radio said a Palestinian suicide bomber tried to detonate explosives attached to his body at the entrance to the hall but was overtaken by security guards. The attacker then threw a hand grenade into the crowd, injuring about 20 people, the radio reported.
The attack took place in the city of Hadera, in northern Israel. The city, which is near the line separating Israel from the West Bank, has been the scene of several Palestinian bombings in recent months.
