Unconfirmed Palestinian reports claim that the suicide bomber who was killed while attempting to carry out an attack in Tel Aviv earlier this week is Jaafar Mona, from the West Bank city of Nablus.

The reports say that Israeli authorities notified Mona’s family recently. There is no official confirmation.

The Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror groups claimed responsibility for the intended attack, although did not offer any proof.
