The blast is the subject of an investigation by the Delhi Police.
Behind the Mission
At about five o’clock on Tuesday evening, there was a loud explosion reported close to the Israeli Embassy in Chanakyapuri. According to an anonymous caller who got in touch with the Delhi Police, there was an explosion on an abandoned plot of land behind the mission. Special police teams and bomb squads were dispatched to the scene, and a search was carried out. Nevertheless, nothing questionable was discovered there.
Official Confirmation
The incident was confirmed by the Israel embassy, which also announced that an investigation is in progress. “We can confirm that there was an explosion close to the embassy at approximately 5:08 p.m. Guy Nir, a spokesman for the embassy, stated on Tuesday night that the Delhi police and the security team are still looking into the circumstances. The incident resulted in no injuries to embassy staff.
Police Search Reveals Letter Wrapped in Israeli Flag
After a protracted police search, a letter near the explosion site was discovered wrapped in an Israeli flag. According to sources who spoke to India Today TV, the one-page typed letter was “abusive” in nature, heavily criticising Israel’s actions in Gaza and mentioning retaliation. The police have not provided any other information regarding the letter. “Experts have examined the spot and lifted exhibits that may have evidentiary relevance. The same are being sent for forensic examination,” Delhi Police said in a statement.
Absence of Burned Explosives
The authorities stated that no evidence of burned explosives was discovered at the location. Thus, according to news agency PTI, experts are thinking about the possibility of a “chemical explosion”. The site has also been inspected by a team from the National Investigation Agency (NIA), an anti-terror investigative agency.
Explosion Cause Determination
According to a statement from the Israeli foreign ministry, Israeli authorities are working with their Indian counterparts to determine what caused the explosion. Since Israel declared war on the Palestinian terror group Hamas in response to the latter’s surprise attack on Israel on October 7, Israeli missions around the globe have been on high alert.
Israeli Establishments in India Implement Heightened Measures
After the incident, the embassy and other Israeli establishments in India were subject to increased security measures. The explosion happened in Chanakyapuri, a diplomatic neighbourhood in the nation’s capital that is home to numerous foreign embassies. A blast near the embassy in 2021 caused damage to several cars. The spouse of a diplomat was hurt when a bomb was placed beneath an Israeli embassy vehicle in February 2012.
