JERUSALEM, Feb. 4 (JTA) —A firebomb was thrown at the home of Yitzhak Rabin’s assassin. The attack on Yigal Amir’s house damaged a fence, but caused no injuries. The perpetrators were not caught. The incident came a day after vandals spray-painted anti-Yitzhak Rabin graffiti on a memorial to the slain prime minister in Jerusalem. The outlawed group Kach claimed responsibility for the anti-Rabin incident.
