Iran, reserving the right to take retaliatory measures, will decide on how to respond and punish the aggressor. The official representative of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Nasser Kanaani, announced this. Kanaani added that the scale of the attack on the consulate in Damascus is being investigated, and responsibility lies with Israel.
On April 1, the "SANA" agency reported that the Israeli Air Force attacked the building of the Iranian consulate in Damascus. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) reported the martyrdom of seven military advisers, including Generals Mohammad Reza Zahedi and Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, and five officers in an Israeli airstrike in Damascus.
