Iran denies Israel claims on Thai blasts

The Islamic Republic of Iran has dismissed Israel allegations that Tehran was behind Tuesday's explosions in the Thai capital Bangkok. According to Press TV, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast condemned the blasts and said that Israel agents are often the perpetrators of such terrorist acts. On Tuesday, a man hurled a grenade at Thai police and a cab. The attacker was injured seriously in the blast. Bangkok police claim they found Iranian identification documents on the maimed man. Earlier in the day, a house rented by three men, who police claim were Iranians, exploded when a cache of explosives went off by accident. Thai police said soon after that, there was a third blast on a nearby road. The three explosions in Bangkok happened a day after bomb attacks targeted Israel's embassy staff in India and Georgia. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Iran was behind the attacks. Iran rejected the accusations as baseless and said that they are a part of Tel Aviv’s psychological warfare campaign against Iran.
