	The '''Tzrifin attack''' was a [[suicide bombing]]~~, terrorist attack~~, which occurred on 9 September 2003 in a [[bus stop]] in central Israel next to the military base [[Tzrifin]]. 9 ~~people~~ were killed in the attack and more than 15 ~~people~~ were injured.

	The ~~suicide bomber~~ was a ~~member of~~ the ~~Palestinian terrorist organization~~ [[Hamas]] ~~and was a resident of the Palestinian village~~ [[~~Rantis~~]] in the ~~[[West Bank]]~~.		The attack was carried out by a terrorist sent by the [[Hamas]] from [[Beit Liqya]]. He blew himself up inside the hitchhiking station at the Jaffa Gate of Camp Tzrifin, during an evening hour when dozens of soldiers and civilians were waiting there. The steel structure of the hitchhiking station absorbed part of the explosion's force, with many metal fragments and shrapnel embedded in it, thereby preventing the further escalation of the disaster.<ref>{{Cite news \|title=עלה ל-8 מספר הרוגי הפיגוע בצריפין \|language=he \|work=Ynet \|url=https://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-2750857,00.html \|access-date=2023-11-19}}</ref>

	==The attack==		The reactions in the Israeli political system to the attack were intense. Members of the Knesset from "[[Likud]]" and "[[Shinui]]" demanded the elimination of the entire Hamas leadership and the expulsion of Yasser Arafat from the Palestinian Authority territories.<ref>{{Cite news \|last=שומפלבי \|first=אילן מרסיאנו ואטילה \|date=2003-09-09 \|title=בימין דורשים: להרוג את ראשי החמאס ולגרש את ערפאת \|language=he \|work=Ynet \|url=https://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-2750900,00.html \|access-date=2023-11-19}}</ref>
