Main Palestinian groups responsible for attacks against Israelis
HAMAS: Founded in 1987, it is the largest militant Islamic group. Responsible for most of the 112 suicide bombings against Israelis, it rejects a Jewish state in the Middle East. It cemented support in the impoverished Gaza Strip by running a network of social and charitable services. United States has declared Hamas a terror group and moved to cut off its funding.
ISLAMIC JIHAD: Founded in 1979, it is a breakaway from the Egypt-based Muslim Brotherhood, guided by fundamentalist Islamic ideology and backed by Iran. Leadership is mostly in Syria. It has attacked dozens of Israeli targets, mostly through bombings and suicide bombings.
