Suicide bombing in Jerusalem leaves 7 dead

The toll included the bomber and six Israelis whose attack devastated the Hilel cafe on Hemek Refaim road. The suicide bomber blew himself up outside the cafe when a security guard tried to prevent him from entering the building. Ambulances rushed to the scene to treat the wounded. Several of the injured were still in critical condition. The blast came just hours after another suicide bombing close to a military base near Tel Aviv left at least seven people dead, as well as the bomber.
