The Shin Bet security agency reportedly arrested three suspects, including at least one Jewish Israeli, suspected of driving at least one of the apparent terrorists who set off several bombs on empty buses in the Tel Aviv suburbs of Bat Yam and Holon last night.
Hebrew media outlets report that the Jewish Israeli suspect will be brought for a remand hearing today. Additionally, a Palestinian illegally in Israel was also reportedly detained in connection to the attack as well as at least one other suspect.
The Shin Bet declines to comment, citing the ongoing investigation.
