A Palestinian suicide bomber has killed three people in the Red Sea resort of Eilat, one of Israel's most popular holiday destinations.

A senior Islamic Jihad leader has called the attack "a natural response to the continued crimes by the Zionist enemy."

The bomber targeted a local bakery in a residential neighbourhood of the resort, rather than one of the many luxury hotels used by westerners seeking winter sunshine.
