Iran is suspected of involvement in an explosion in New Delhi

Indian police have questioned Iranian citizens about the possibility of an explosion near the Israeli embassy in New Delhi, India Today reported on Saturday.

It is also reported that the police are also investigating the details of people who arrived in taxis on the street where the embassy is located a few hours before the explosion and that the "Jaish al-Hind" organization claimed responsibility for the explosion.

The scene of the explosion in New Delhi

Investigators in the country discovered a correspondence on the Telegram channel in which the Islamic terrorist organization took responsibility for placing the explosive device.

In correspondence, the channel expressed pride in the failed attack.

However, the investigation is still ongoing.

Sources in the investigative authorities told the website that they do not base themselves on specific allegations until they have finished gathering evidence that Jaish al-Hind is responsible for the explosion.

There is a suspicion among the authorities that the acceptance of responsibility by the Islamist organization was intended to be deliberately misleading.

A letter was later uncovered at the scene of the explosion, which referred to nuclear scientist Muhsin Fahrizadeh and Quds Force commander Qassem Suleimani as hands.

This raised the suspicion that the explosion was linked to Iran.

The letter warned that the explosion was only a trailer.   

The World Health Organization recommends pregnant women get vaccinated against corona

The World Health Organization last night updated its guidelines for vaccinating pregnant women against corona, and removed its opposition except in exceptional cases.

That is, unless it is a high-risk, the recommendation is to vaccinate against the virus, the New York Times reported.

To date, the organization has not recommended vaccinating pregnant women with Pfizer and Modern vaccines, which has provoked much protest in the medical community.

Some experts have expressed disappointment with this position.

According to them, this was a directive that did not comply with the position of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States, which could cause confusion among pregnant women.

According to experts, the vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna have not been tested on pregnant women, but they have not shown negative effects in animal studies.

In addition, the technology in which the vaccines were manufactured has proven to be safe.

Senior Palestinian official: Israel will transfer thousands of corona vaccines to the PA

Over the next week, thousands of doses of Pfizer-made corona vaccine will be transferred from Israel to the Palestinian Authority, a senior Ramallah official confirmed to Israel Today.

According to the Palestinian official, there are between 5,000 and 7,000 vaccine doses intended for Palestinian medical teams.

This is due to various delays in the supply of the Russian vaccine Sputnik 5.

As you may recall, the shipment of vaccines from Russia was supposed to arrive in the PA's territory as early as last week.

However, the arrival of vaccines from Russia has been delayed and it is still unclear when they will be delivered to the Palestinians.

The US eliminated the ISIS commander in Iraq

The US mission headquarters in Iraq announced yesterday that the US Air Force killed the commander of the ISIS terrorist organization in Iraq on Tuesday in an airstrike near the city of Kirkuk.

In a tweet on the social network Twitter, the spokesman for the task force, Colonel Wayne Morto, reported that the terrorist rabbi, known by his nickname Abu Yasser, was under surveillance by the US military and the Iraqi army, and that along with him, ten more of the organization's terrorists were killed.

"The assassination of Abu Yasser is another blow to ISIS 'attempt to raise its head in Iraq. The coalition will continue to attack key leaders and erode terrorist organizations. Terrorists - you will never be allowed to live in peace, we will persecute you to the ends of the earth," wrote Colonel Morto.
