On November 30, 1947, an Egged bus on its way to Jerusalem from Netanya was attacked by Arab militants, followed by an attack on another bus, killing seven Jews. It was the first attack following the UN's adoption of the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine, which took place the day before. According to Israeli historian Benny Morris, the attack may have been retaliation for the Shubaki family assassination by Lehi ten days prior to the incident.
