A letter addressed to the Israeli ambassador was discovered near the country's embassy in the national capital, shortly after reports of a supposed explosion. Reports indicate that the typed letter is of an "abusive" nature. Despite initial reports, investigators have found no evidence of a blast.

The Delhi Police responded to a call about the "blast" behind the embassy at approximately 5:45 pm on Tuesday. Teams from the district staff, Special Cell, and the Delhi Fire Services swiftly arrived at the scene. The call, made by an on-duty police official who heard an "explosion" from behind the embassy, prompted a thorough investigation.

However, a senior police officer stated that there were no indications of a fire or blast. Both a dog squad and a bomb disposal squad were deployed, but as of now, no findings have been reported.
