Israeli diplomat ‘critical but stable’ after attack

Primus Hospital Medical Superintendent Dr N D Khurana told AFP.
“There are so many injuries (to her body). She is critical but she is stable,” Khurana said, declining to give further details about the woman’s condition.
Indian police said they were hunting for a man on a motorbike suspected of attaching a device to the diplomat’s car shortly before it exploded into a ball of flames. Bystanders pulled the diplomat and her driver from the wreckage.
Israeli embassy staff were targeted by car bomb attacks in both Delhi and the Georgian capital, Tbilisi, yesterday, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanayhu pointing the finger of blame at Iran.
Meanwhile, scores of Jordanians held a sit-in on Sunday, calling for the closure of the Israeli embassy in Amman and the expulsion of the Israeli ambassador.
Holding Jordanian and Palestinian flags, the demonstrators called on the Jordanian government to shut down the Israeli embassy in Jordan’s capital and to expel the Israeli ambassador.
The demonstrators held the sit-in in protest of calls by Israel’s Likud Party to storm into the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem to build the Jewish alleged temple.
According to Wafa, several Israeli right-wing websites published an announcement on behalf of the Likud party, calling on thousands of Likud members to storm the mosque along with a delegation headed by Moshe Feiglin, who ran against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. – AFP/Xinhua.
