John Brennan, US President Barack Obama's chief counterterrorism official, met with his Israeli counterparts in Israel on Wednesday to discuss recent attacks on Israeli targets.

Brennan visited Israel "to consult with senior Israeli officials about a range of shared security concerns, including the recent wave of terrorist plots against Israeli and other interests," the White House has said in a release.

Brennan also met with Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Fayyad in Jerusalem.

On Tuesday, Obama's Deputy National Security Advisor for Counterterrorism and Homeland Security met with Bulgarian PM Boyko Borisov.
