"There are no limits to the Iranian terror," said Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli Prime Minister. "After Iran sent its people to assassinate the Saudi ambassador on American soil and carry out attacks in Azerbaijan, Bangkok, Tbilisi and New Delhi, now its intention to carry out attacks in Africa is revealed.
"The international community needs to fight the world's greatest exporter of terror."
