Arafat aide Ahmed Abdel-Rahman blamed the attack on the "continued Israeli occupation of Palestinian areas."
He said Israeli incursions into Palestinian territories made it impossible for the Authority to carry out security duties.
Tenet discussed reforms of the Palestinian security forces with Arafat in the West Bank city of Ramallah on Tuesday. Arafat proposed amalgamating nine key Palestinian Authority security services into three agencies.
Israel has made any resumption of peace negotiations with the Palestinians conditional on an end to suicide attacks and on wide-ranging reforms within Arafat's Palestinian Authority.
