The Iranian government has claimed that Israeli forces have bombed Iran’s embassy in Syria which resulted in the killing of 7 Iranian military men including 2 senior commanders.
The air strike on the Iranian embassy’s five-story building killed seven members of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps.
Among the dead, were Brigadier Generals Mohammad Reza Zahedi and Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, both senior commanders in the Quds Force, Guards’ foreign operations arm.
Zahedi, 63, had held a succession of commands in the force in a Guards career spanning more than four decades.
Irani President Ibrahim Raisi condemned that attack and said that Iran will retaliate.
