The JC:
The Israeli Foreign Ministry has confirmed Israeli tourists have been killed in an explosion on a bus carrying Israeli tourists in Bulgaria.
Local media in the resort of Burgas claim the bus was outside the Sarafovo airport and was packed with Israelis.
Bulgarian radio said three people had been killed. It is thought at least 20 have been injured.
The explosion is thought to have occurred at around 6pm local time.
Burgas is the second largest resort on the country's Black Sea coast. It is popular with Israeli tourists and is home to a Chabad centre. Israeli teens are known to flock to the resort for their summer holidays.
Israel has previously warned Bulgaria of the threat posed by Hizbollah.
Of course, Hezbollah is an arm of Iran.
There were reports of an unsuccessful bomb attack that targeted Jewish tourists in Bulgaria this past January that was apparently hushed up.
