Bombers target Israeli diplomats in Georgia, India

Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor says one Israeli was wounded in the New Delhi attack near the Israeli Embassy. He would not identify the person or give details on the extent of the injuries.

The ministry said Israel thwarted a similar attack on an Israeli Embassy vehicle in Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia. The bomb was discovered before it went off.
