(Ynet News) Roi Nahmias and Ronen Bodoni - Israeli Mossad officials informed British security authorities that the explosive material used in the London bombings was apparently also utilized in a Tel Aviv beachfront suicide bombing in April 2003, the German newspaper Bild am Sonntag reported Monday. The Mossad concluded that the explosive material used in the Tel Aviv attack was produced in China and later smuggled into Britain. According to the newspaper, Mossad chief Meir Dagan said the explosive in question is "much more lethal than plastic explosives and can be smuggled undetected due to its composition." The Mossad also determined the substance was produced at the Chinese ZDF arms factory, the paper reported.
