JERUSALEM (CNN) -- An explosion at a Tel Aviv bus stop has killed one woman and wounded more than 20 others, according to Tel Aviv police and Israeli emergency services.

Four of the injured are in a serious condition.

The al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, a military offshoot of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, claimed responsibility for the attack, according to Palestinian security sources.

Israeli police said it was not a suicide attack, but the result of a bomb placed in the bushes near the bus stop, according to Tel Aviv police spokeswoman Shlomit Hertzberg.
