A LITTLE-KNOWN group calling itself the Imad Mughnieh unit of the Brigades of the Liberators of the Galilee claimed responsibility for a deadly attack in Jerusalem today in a phone call to AFP.
The same group claimed an attack in March on a Jewish seminary in Jerusalem that killed eight people, which they said was revenge for the killing of senior Lebanese Hezbollah commander Imad Mughnieh in Damascus.The militia blamed Mughnieh's death on Israel and has vowed revenge.
Israel welcomed Mughnieh's death but denied any responsibility.
In today's attack a Palestinian man from east Jerusalem ploughed an earthmover into a bus and cars in central Jerusalem, killing three people and wounding dozens of others before he was shot dead by Israeli police.
