Israel blames Iran for attacks in New Delhi, Tbilisi

Tel Aviv (dpa) – Israel on Monday blamed Iran for two attacks that targeted its diplomatic missions in India and Georgia.
“In recent months we have witnessed several attempts to attack Israeli citizens and Jews in several countries, including Azerbaijan, Thailand and others,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“Today we have witnessed two additional attempted terrorist attacks on innocent civilians, the first against an Israeli woman who was wounded in New Delhi and the second against a local employee of the Israeli Embassy in Georgia.
“Iran is behind these attacks; it is the largest exporter of terrorism in the world,” Netanyahu said.
In New Delhi, a car bomb injured four people, among them the wife of Israel's local Defense Ministry representative.
Witnesses in Delhi saw the car going up in flames.
“We heard a loud blast and came here to see what happened. We saw the car burning. There were two people in the car. Bystanders pulled them out,” Ravi Singh, an eyewitness told local reporters.
In the Georgian capital Tbilisi, police disarmed a bomb attached to a vehicle used by Israeli embassy staff.
Embassy driver Roman Khachaturiyan discovered the hand grenade, which had been taped to the bottom of the vehicle, during a routine morning check, according to Russia's Interfax news agency.
Media reports in Israel said the country's embassies had since moved to the highest possible security alert, with diplomats in some missions instructed not to use their vehicles.
The incidents came a day after the fourth anniversary of the assassination of Hezbollah military chief Imad Mughniyeh, in Damascus on February 12, 2008.
No one has claimed responsibility for the killing, but Hezbollah, which is believed to be funded by Iran, has blamed Israel and has vowed revenge.
