Israel has been on high alert in the aftermath of the bomb incidents in India, Thailand and Georgia on Monday and Tuesday that Israeli officials alleged were aimed at diplomats from the Jewish state.
Iran and Lebanon's Islamist Hezbollah militants are seeking to attack Israeli targets in several countries, a top counter-terrorism official warned today.
Warning Israeli citizens abroad to be careful of suspicious objects and adhere to the directives of local security agencies, the unnamed official at Israel's Counter-terrorism Bureau said that Iranian and Hizbullah operatives are planning anti-Israel attacks around the world.
Israel has been on high alert in the aftermath of the bomb incidents in India, Thailand and Georgia on Monday and Tuesday that Israeli officials alleged were aimed at diplomats from the Jewish state.
"I call on Israelis abroad to show awareness and take basic steps to reduce possible harm," the official told reporters, speaking on condition of anonymity and without giving further details.
He adviced Israeli abroad "take note of suspicious objects and refrain from taking packages from strangers" and "be attentive to the directives of local security forces."
The Israeli security forces are, however, not in possession of any specific information concerning a particular country in which such an attack could take place, the official said citing only a general warning.
He indicated that an investigation of Iranian nationals apprehended following the botched Bangkok bombing earlier this week indicated that more attacks were in the works.
He stressed that the current intelligence points at a clear Iranian involvement in all three of this week's attacks in New Delhi, Tblisi and Bangkok.
Israel has accused Iran and Hezbollah of being behind twin bomb attacks that targeted Israeli embassy staff in India and Georgia on Monday, wounding four people.sds
