| No known injuries from Israeli railroad explosion |
| 2002-06-30 |
| A bomb exploded under a moving passenger train in central Israel on Sunday, damaging one car but causing no serious injuries, police said. A Palestinian near the blast was held for questioning, but authorities said they were not certain the explosion was the work of militants. I'd be mighty surprised if it wasn't. It didn't just grow there. Authorities said the bomb appeared to have been planted on the tracks overnight just north of the town of Lod. It was not clear if the device was on a timer or was detonated by remote control as the train passed. |
