Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has accused Israel of being behind the recent attack on Tehran's consulate in the Syrian capital of Damascus. Raisi stated that such actions by Israel will not go unanswered and emphasized that the strengthening of the resistance front is evident in the face of such inhumane acts.
Following a meeting with Raisi, Iran's Supreme National Security Council announced that appropriate decisions have been made in response to the attack. The incident resulted in the tragic loss of at least seven officials, including high-ranking commanders from Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards.
Israel's military has refrained from commenting on the foreign reports regarding the attack. However, a spokesperson for Israel did mention to CNN that the consulate was allegedly a military building of Quds forces disguised as a civilian structure.
The attack has escalated tensions between Iran and Israel, with both sides exchanging accusations and threats. The situation remains volatile as the aftermath of the attack unfolds, and the international community closely monitors the developments in the region.
