Tweet warned of today’s attack, was signed on behalf of IS
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleChannel 2 reports that a tweet from yesterday late morning warned of an attack on Dizengoff Street today. It says this tweet was signed on behalf of Islamic State.
The tweet features a photograph of a suicide-bomber belt. The TV report notes that today’s attack did not involve a suicide bomber.
It says police also received a telephoned warning, apparently from a different source.
Police took both warnings seriously, the TV report says.
The telephoned report has been dismissed as not credible, the TV report adds.
