On 28 February 1984, two hand grenades exploded outside a clothing store on Jaffa Road, a busy commercial street in Jerusalem, injuring 21 people.[1][2][3]

Attack

Jerusalem police said that four hand grenades were concealed in a bag that was planted near the store on Jaffa Road, but that only two of them exploded, at 9:40 a.m.[1] Police said they had detained a number of Arab suspects in connection with the attack, while Israeli radio said that three Arabs who had been detained were later placed under arrest.[1]

Responsibility for the attack was claimed by the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) and the Abu Nidal Organization (ANO).[1] The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Chairman Yasser Arafat referred to the attack as a "military operation," and said that it "means that whoever thinks our Palestinian people can be stopped is mistaken because the Palestinian revolution is a giant."[1]
