An Egged bus driver was severely wounded Thursday when a bomb exploded in a parked bus in an Egged garage here. The driver was identified as an Arab from Gaza who was assigned to the Gaza Strip-Tel Aviv route.
There were no eyewitnesses to the explosion, but Egged workers in a hut near the parking lot rushed to the scene and saw the badly-damaged vehicle with the driver in it. Police searched the lot and found a number of explosive charges hidden among and inside other parked buses.
