US President Barack Obama called Prime Minster Binyamin Netanyahu on Wednesday night to express his condolences for the death of at least seven Israelis in a terror attack in Burgas, Bulgaria earlier in the day.

Netanyahu thanked Obama for the call, saying that Iran and Hezbollah are waging a terror campaign around the world. "Iran is a global terror state that must face the consequences of its actions," the prime minister said.
