A car bomb exploded outside of Israel's embassy in the Indian capital
of New Delhi on Monday moderately wounding Israel's defense minister
to India's wife. The incident came one day after the fourth
anniversary marking the assassination of Hezbollah's deputy leader,
Imad Mughniyah. Also on Monday, in Georgia, the Tbilisi police were
alerted of an object attached to a car assigned to the Israeli envoy
to the country. Israeli embassies have been put on high alert fearing
Hezbollah retribution. Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said that
Israel would not tolerate an attack on its officials abroad, adding
that Monday's incidents show Israel and its citizens face a daily
threat of terror, both "physical and diplomatic."
