Israel has arrested an Israeli Arab and several Palestinians in the West Bank suspected of being involved in Wednesday's Tel Aviv bus bombing. The bus explosion, that injured 29 people, occurred hours before a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. The attack was the first of such kind in Tel Aviv in over six years. Israeli military spokeswoman Avital Leibovich said the bomb suspect was an Arab-Israeli from Tabye and a member of Hamas. Authorities said several Palestinians with connections to Hamas and Islamic Jihad in the West Bank were also arrested for allegedly recruiting the man to carry out the attack.
