Jerusalem (CNN) -- The deadly terror bombing that rocked Jerusalem appeared to be "unrelated" to the rocket attacks from Gaza into southern Israel, Israel's ambassador to the United States told CNN Thursday.
Michael Oren said the rocket attacks probably have more to do with infighting in the Hamas-controlled territory of Gaza. However, he said, there has been an escalation in violence against his country.
"Israel has been under attack on several fronts," Oren said, also citing the recent murder of an Israeli family in the West Bank.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the Jerusalem terrorist attack Wednesday, which was caused by a medium-sized device in a bag that had been left near a bus station. CNN
