Iran has promised Thailand that it will no longer try and carry out attacks on Israeli targets on its soil, the Walla news site reports, citing a Foreign Ministry cable.

In recent weeks Bangkok informed Jerusalem of the development during a  high-level diplomatic visit to Thailand, the report says.

Iran has in the past tried to carry out several attacks against Israelis in Thailand, a popular tourist destination.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry declined to comment on the report, while the Thai Embassy in Israel told Walla that the facts of the report were not accurate.
