STORYLINE:
A suicide bomber blew himself up in a crowded cafe in Tel Aviv's entertainment district Saturday evening, killing himself and wounding at least 29 guests.
The blast blew glass shards across the sidewalk and overturned chairs and tables in My Coffee Shop on Allenby Street, a major thoroughfare in Tel Aviv.
First reports said the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, a militia linked to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, claimed responsibility.
Israel's Channel Two television station identified the attacker as a man from the West Bank city of Nablus.
The explosion went off sometime after 9 p.m. (1800 GMT). Police said the bomber was killed. Paramedics said 29 people were wounded, six of them seriously.
An official in Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's office said Israel would take all steps necessary "using all means possible," to stop the Palestinian attacks.
It was the third Palestinian suicide bomb attack this week.
