debkafile’s counter-terrorist sources report a bomb attached to the car of an Israeli Defense Ministry official in New Delhi blew up and injured his wife Monday, Feb. 12. The Indian police reports two people were injured in the blast that was triggered remotely near the Israeli embassy and opposite the Indian Prime Minister’s Office. The Iranian media report six to eight casualties. Police have cordoned off the area and declared a terror alert. The details of the attack are not yet clear.
Israeli diplomats and foreign officials have been ordered to stop using their own vehicles and be extra-vigilant after the second bombing attack.
In the Georgian capital of Tbilisi, a bomb attached to the car of a local Israeli embassy employee was discovered and defused before it exploded.
It is not known if the bomb was rigged to kill the employee or to blow up remotely against the embassy building after the vehicle was driven into the compound. Sunday, Feb. 11, was the fourth anniversary of the death of Hizballah’s commander Imad Mughniye in Damascus. Tehran is marking the first anniversary of the assassinations of two of its nuclear scientists. Both attribute the attacks to Israel and have sworn vengeance.
Our counter-terror sources report that the attacks on Israeli officials used the same sticky bomb method as was used to kill the Iranian scientists.
