The toll is reproduced exactly as the source states it — never rounded, never added to another. Tolls overlap from one event to the next.
The bus line connecting Tiberias to Haifa runs along Mount Carmel and serves the localities of the northern part of the country; it carries residents, students, and soldiers on leave.
Near kibbutz Yagur, at the entrance to Haifa, a man boards and detonates his charge. The bus is destroyed and catches fire; passengers are killed and dozens wounded.
The attack occurs during the Israeli military operation in the West Bank, in a series targeting buses in the northern part of the country, which will lead to the construction of the separation barrier, decided a few weeks later.
