Embassy of Israel, New Delhi is the diplomatic mission of Israel to India. The embassy oversees the Consulate General of Israel, Mumbai [he] and the Consulate General of Israel, Bangalore.

The embassy was opened after the official establishment of relations between India and Israel on January 29, 1992.[1]

On February 13 2012 the wife of a diplomat from the embassy was wounded when a bomb exploded in her car while she was on her way to work, as part of 2012 attacks on Israeli diplomats.

A minor IED explosion took place outside the embassy on 29 January 2021 when the two countries celebrated the 29th anniversary of India-Israel ties.[2][3][4] Israel blames Iran for this.[5][6]
