The perpetrators

The military wing of Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack, stating that it was in retaliation for Israeli raids on Palestinian cities and towns, including Ramallah where the then President of the Palestinian National Authority, Yasser Arafat, was under siege. A Hamas spokesman stated that the suicide bomber was a 22-year-old Palestinian named Shadi Tubasi. Tubasi came from a refugee camp near Jenin area that had recently been invaded by Israeli forces.
