Train station blast kills guard


KFAR SABA (Israel): A Palestinian suicide bomber killed a security guard and wounded 10 bystanders in a rush hour explosion at a train station in Israel yesterday, a day after the incoming Palestinian prime minister completed forming a new Cabinet that clears the way for a new Mideast peace initiative by Washington. 

An apparent breakaway faction of a militia linked to Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement claimed responsibility for the bombing in the town of Kfar Saba near the West Bank. Witnesses said the bomber detonated an explosives belt as he was being checked by a security guard at the entrance to the station.
