Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi responded this morning (Tuesday) to last night's attack at the Iranian Embassy in Damascus, in which the commander of the Quds Force in Syria and Lebanon, Mohammad Reza Zahedi was killed along with six other officers of the Revolutionary Guards. The attack was attributed to Israel.
"The Israeli attack on the consulate in Damascus will not go unanswered," said Raisi. "The Zionist enemy should know that they will not achieve their goals. The resistance front is getting stronger in terms of its strength and also in terms of its hatred towards the enemy."
Last night, Iran's Foreign Minister, Hossein Amir Abdollahian, claimed that "Netanyahu is out of balance because of the losses in Gaza and the failure to achieve his war goals. This aggression is a violation of all diplomatic norms and international conventions. We consider Israel responsible for the consequences of this step. The international community should take a firm stand against these crimes."
