"British police told the Israeli Embassy in London minutes before
Thursday's explosions that they had received warnings of possible terror
attacks in the city, a senior Israeli official said.

"Israeli Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had planned to attend an
economic conference in a hotel over the subway stop where one of the
blasts occurred, and the warning prompted him to stay in his hotel room
instead, government officials said.

"Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said he wasn't aware of any Israeli
casualties.

"Just before the blasts, Scotland Yard called the security officer at  
the
Israeli Embassy to say they had received warnings of possible attacks,  
the
official said. He did not say whether British police made any link to  
the
economic conference.

"The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the nature of  
his
position."
