Iran Blamed After Blasts Target Israeli Diplomats in Georgia, India

HeadlineFeb 14, 2012

Israeli officials are blaming Iran after Israeli diplomats were targeted in nearly simultaneous bombings in India and the former Soviet state of Georgia. Four people were injured in India, including the wife of the Israeli embassy’s defense attaché. The bomb in Georgia was disarmed after it was discovered on a vehicle parked at the Israeli embassy. Iran denied responsibility for Monday’s bombings, saying the Israeli accusations were part of a “psychological war” against it. Meanwhile, authorities in Thailand say an Iranian man carrying explosives blew off his own legs and wounded four other people in two blasts earlier today in Bangkok.
