Beersheba bus bombings
The Beersheba bus bombings were two suicide bombings carried out nearly simultaneously aboard commuter buses in Beersheba, Israel, on August 31, 2004. 16 people were killed〔(16 killed in suicide bombings on buses in Israel ) – published on CNN on September 1, 2004〕 and more than 100 were injured. Hamas claimed responsibility for the attacks.〔(Twin Blasts Kill 16 in Israel; Hamas Claims Responsibility, The New York Times, September 1, 2004 )〕
== Background ==
The previous major attack on Be'er sheva was the 19 October 1998 grenade attack on the Central bus station, where 64〔http://www.globes.co.il/news/article.aspx?did=69085〕 people were wounded when a Palestinian from Hebron〔מבט, 19.10.1998 מהדורת חדשות〕 threw two grenades at the bus station.
During the Second Intifada in the early 2000s (decade), at the time which was characterized by an intensified period of suicide attacks were carried out in Israel by the Palestinian militant organizations in Israel, Be'er Sheva was considered a relatively safe place, as it did not experience any terror attacks.
In 2004, the year in which the attack was carried out, the second intifada was declining, and then the tensions escalated in March 2004, with the assassination of the leader of Hamas Ahmed Yassin. A month later, in April, Yassin's successor Abdel Aziz al-Rantissi was assassinated. After those two assassinations Israel had the quietest four months since the outbreak of the Second Intifada, which came to an end when the Beersheba bus bombings were carried out.
