JERUSALEM — Israel’s prime minister said Sunday that his country is on alert for plots to kill more of its citizens overseas, after speculation that last week’s suicide bombing of a tour bus in Bulgaria was a rehearsal for a spectacular attack on Israel’s Olympics team.
Israel blames Iran and its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah for last week’s bombing at an airport in the Bulgarian resort town of Burgas, just a little more than a week before the opening of the London Games. Five Israelis and a bus driver were killed. Iran called the accusation “baseless.”
