- Palestinians rioted against Israeli troops in the West Bank for the third straight day to protest Israel's plans to build a new Jewish settlement in Arab East Jerusalem. The demonstrations, in which more than 100 Palestinians were wounded by Israeli gunfire, come only one day after a Palestinian suicide bombing killed three Israelis in Tel Aviv, and Laurie Neff reports that Islamic militants are warning of more bombings unless the Israelis stop construction of the controversial Jerusalem settlement.
