Israeli officials said they would fight terrorism and continue peace talks with the Palestinian Authority despite terrorist bombings in the northern coastal town of Netanya. No group claimed responsibility for the three pipe bombs that exploded Sunday, lightly to moderately wounding dozens of people. Israeli and Palestinian officials blamed the attack on Islamic militants seeking to derail the peace process. The Israeli Cabinet was meeting to approve the next withdrawal from the West Bank when the attack occurred.
