Israel closes 4 embassies in face of terror threats

Share:

Israel has closed all or part of four foreign missions in the face of terror threats, the Foreign Ministry said Tuesday.

“Our assessment at this point is that these sites are under threat, and this is being taken care of,” the ministry said in a statement.

“Unusual occurrences have been identified recently around a few Israeli missions abroad,” the ministry said in the statement, without identifying which embassies or consulates were affected. “The relevant Israeli authorities are in touch with relevant authorities in the countries concerned.”

Israel’s counter-terror bureau also warned citizens to avoid Israeli and Jewish targets in Egypt, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Ivory Coast, Mali, Mauritania and Venezuela, in connection with the anniversary of the assassination of Hezbollah figures Imad Mughniyeh and Abbas al-Moussawi

Moussawi was killed by an Israeli air-strike in south Lebanon in February 1992. Mughniyeh, Hezbollah’s operations officer and one of the world’s most wanted terrorists, died in a Damascus explosion in February 2008.

    Hezbollah should be exacting revenge on Syria for which it was actually behind Mughnieh killing. Why otherwise would not have come out with anything other than saying we arrested palestinians and Saudis. And they accused them of working with Israel. I mean come one what a farce proof and Hezbollah dares not to question Syrian evidence.. I hear no Syrian’s officials attended the funeral anyway and Hezbollah threatened to break relation with Syria over the incident. Why aren’t anyone in M8 saying anything about it. Bunch of cowards and we’re going to pin it on Israel without any proof whatsoever. Israel is capable of many assassinations but this one is far fetched since Mughnieh was well protected and was a very shrewd man. So the only way he would move around knowing he could trust the people who are protecting him. Therefore I hold Syria responsible for his assassinations and even his wife accused Syria until shut up by Iran orders. I like to hear the M8 supporters here if you care to comment..

    Rumors are that the STL investigators who were attacked by veiled “women” in the southern suberb were checking out the medical records of Maghniyeh’s widow as she is suspected to be pregnant. It could either be the Holy Spirit or the spirit of her deceased husband.

    Has anyone seen his body? Is it possible that his killing was fake so that the USA drops its demand for Syria to turn him over as a condition for re-establishing diplomatic relationship with Bashar’s oppressive regime?
