"So far nothing has been found at the location,” Delhi Fire Services Director Atul Garg stated.

A spokesperson from the Israeli embassy confirmed a loud blast in the vicinity and assured that the police, along with their security team, are actively investigating the incident.

The Israeli foreign ministry affirmed that no embassy staff members were harmed, and both Indian and Israeli agencies are collaborating to probe the matter further.

The incident follows a bomb scare earlier in Mumbai, where the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) received a threatening email outlining plans to detonate 11 bombs across the financial capital.

HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank were mentioned as potential targets. The sender also demanded the resignation of Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das. (ILKHA)
