Rioting by British soldiers was resumed last right, with groups roaming the streets of Tel Aviv and assaulting passers-by. One soldier was injured when Jewish youths defended the targets of their attack.
Earlier, a bomb was thrown onto the balcony of a Jewish house on the boundary of Tel Aviv and Jaffa. There were no casualties and little damage was done. It is believed that the bomb was planted by the Najada, Arab underground force, in reprisal for the raid by Jews on the Arab village of Salama on Wednesday.
