Argentina recalled all but one of its diplomats from Iran because of what it said were “increasing certainties” of Iranian involvement in two bombing attacks of Jewish sites in Buenos Aires. Iran retaliated by saying it would reduce its economic ties with Argentina. The two attacks in Buenos Aires — the 1992 bombing of the Israeli Embassy and the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center — killed 115 people and wounded at least 400 others.
