Two bomb blasts have killed a 16-year-old boy and left at least 15 others injured in Jerusalem.
Both devices were aimed at bus passengers, with Israeli police blaming Palestinian forces, according to the BBC, which said the use of explosives in the city was “the most significant attack of its kind in years”
Media reports said the bombs contained nails to maximise damage.
The attacks come as the city, an integral part of religious pilgrimages, prepares for the festive season.
The FCDO has yet to change its advice about travel to Israel.
