Six people have been injured after a bomb exploded near an Israeli school.

Six people have been injured after a bomb exploded near an Israeli school.

The blast, at the entrance to a high school in Netanya, was a car bomb, Israeli radio claims.

Police said six people, including four teenagers, were slightly injured.

Netanya is about six miles from the West Bank. It has been the scene of several bomb attacks by Palestinian militants, although most have occurred in the busier shopping district.

On May 18, a suicide bombing at a shopping mall in the town killed five Israelis and the assailant.

Earlier, two Israeli armed vehicles fired on stone-throwing Palestinians at the Rafah refugee camp in southern Gaza, injuring four people.

One of them, a 14-year-old boy, was critically injured with a shot to the chest, doctors said.
