TEL AVIV, February 4 (RIA Novosti) - An explosion in a shopping mall in the city of Dimona in southern Israel has killed at least three people, a source at the local ambulance service said on Monday.

Five people have sought medical assistance so far, but the overall number of victims is "likely to rise," the source said.

Local television report that police officers shot a second suicide bomber, who failed to detonate his explosive device.

Israeli media said that authorities suspect the attack was carried out by a Palestinian suicide bomber, although so far no group has claimed responsibility for the blast.
