At least three empty buses exploded on Thursday evening in a southern suburb of Tel Aviv in what police see as a “suspected terrorist attack,” they said.
There were no injuries, according to initial reports.
The Haaretz newspaper first reported that two empty buses exploded in Bat Yam and later a third bus exploded. TV channel Kan reported that all three affected buses were parked at the time of the explosions.
