NEW DELHI, India - Bombers have targeted staff at Israeli embassies in India and Georgia, officials say, with Israel accusing Iran of masterminding the attacks.The attack took place in a high security zone in the Indian capital, a kilometre from the heavily fortified Israeli embassy, and just down the road from the Indian prime minister's official residence.
A second car bomb targeting the vehicle of a non-diplomatic staffer at the Israeli embassy in Tbilisi, Georgia was defused Monday before it detonated, Israeli foreign ministry official Paul Hirschson told journalists Monday."Iran, which is behind these attacks, is the biggest exporter of terrorism in the world," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a Facebook posting Monday, the Jerusalem Post reported.
"The Israeli government and its security forces will continue to work together with local security services against these terrorist actions."Iran's ambassador to India strongly denied any Iranian role in the attack, Reuters reported.
