STORYLINE:
A suicide bomber attacked a Jerusalem bus early Sunday, killing himself and seven passengers and wounding at least 20 others.
A second bomber later blew himself up on the city's outskirts, apparently after he failed to penetrate emergency road blocks set up after the first attack.
The attacks came just hours after Israeli and Palestinian leaders met to discuss a new peace plan in their first top-level summit in nearly three years, and shortly before Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was scheduled to travel to Washington for talks on the plan with US President George W Bush.
SUGGESTED VOICE OVER:
00 02 The first bomber targetted a bus in the north of Jerusalem, blowing himself up and killing seven passengers.
00 09 At least 20 others were wounded, four seriously.
00 13 The assailant struck at a few minutes before six in the morning - the start of rush hour.
00 21 Witnesses said the bomb went off as the bus approached a bridge near one of Jerusalem's largest intersections.
00 29 The second suicide bomber blew himself up at the entrance to a village on the outskirts of Jerusalem.
00 36 Police said the bomber was killed in the blast but no one else was hurt.
00 41 Nobody has claimed responsibility for either attack.
00 45 The bombings came shortly after the Israeli and Palestinian prime ministers met to discuss a new peace plan - the first such meeting between the two sides in almost three years.
00 57 The attacks prompted Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to postpone a trip to meet President Bush.
