Israeli missions have been on alert around the globe in the wake of the assassination of Iran’s top nuclear scientist in November 2019. Tehran had blamed Israel and also promised revenge.
The bomb that went off at embassy on Friday appeared to have been planted in a flower pot on the road divider, according to the police. A letter in an envelope addressed “to Israel Embassy ambassador” was also found while it also described the explosion as a “trailer”, according to the sources said. It also refers to two “Iranian martyrs”, Qasem Soleimani and Dr Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the sources added.
