Israeler dödades i terrorattack i Bulgarien

Enligt de uppgifter som för tillfället finns att tillgå dödades sju israeler i en terrorattack mot en turistbuss i Bulgarien. Ett tjugotal personer skadades.
Terrorattacken inträffade på 18-årsdagen av en iransk terrorattack mot ett judiskt center i Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Under de senaste månaderna har flera terrorattacker utomlands  mot israeliska mål avslöjats och avvärjts i tid, denna gång hade man inte samma tur.
Premiärminister Netanyahu säger att allt pekar på att Iran (och Hizzbollah) står bakom attacken.

5 dead in suicide bombing on Israeli bus in Bulgaria (Jerusalem Post)

"Five Israelis were killed and many injured when a suicide bomber blew up an Israeli tourist bus at the airport of the Bulgarian city of Burgas on Wednesday, the 18th anniversary of the Iran-sponsored attack on the AMIA Jewish center in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The death toll, though still not officially confirmed, was reported by Bulgaria's Sofia News Agency.

The bus was carrying Israeli tourists who landed in Bulgaria at a 4:45 p.m, and was meant to take them to Bulgaria's Sunny Beach resort. Two adjacent buses were also damaged in the blast.

  PM: All signs point to Iran in Bulgaria attack

"Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Wednesday said Iran is likely behind the attack on Israeli civilians in Bulgaria, and vowed a powerful Israeli response.
"All the signs lead to Iran. Only in the past few months we have seen Iranian attempts to attack Israelis in Thailand, India, Georgia, Kenya, Cyprus and other places," Netanyahu said in a statement."

 Analysis: Attack recalls Argentina, but not quite
"The attack on Israelis in Bulgaria has hallmarks of the Iran-sponsored Hezbollah, but some differences as well."
