Background A 2007 study of Palestinian suicide bombings that took place from September 2000 through August 2005 found that 39.9 percent of the suicide attacks were carried out by Hamas, 25.7 percent by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), 26.4 percent by Fatah, 5.4 percent by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and 2.7 percent by other organizations. The youngest victim of the Second Intifada was an Israeli infant who was nine hours old. Several pregnant women have also been killed.Copans, Laurie. "Israeli Bus Victims Include Baby".

The targets included the Dolphinarium discotheque massacre, a place frequented by Israeli youth, and open-air markets and public buses, which are disproportionately used by women and the elderly.
