Tehran vows to respond after a deadly strike blamed on Israel demolished Iran’s consulate in the Syrian capital, Damascus.
Iran said it will take revenge on Israel for an airstrike that killed two of its generals and five military advisers at its embassy compound in Syria, raising the risk of further escalation in conflict in the Middle East.
The strike marked one of the most significant attacks yet on Iranian interests in Syria, where Israel has stepped up a long-running military campaign against Iran and groups it backs.
The Lebanese militant Hezbollah group – a key ally of both Syrian president Bashar al-Assad’s government and Iran – also pledged “punishment and revenge” on Israel.
Israel, which has repeatedly targeted Iranian officers at sites in Syria and in Lebanon, has not confirmed it is behind the attack.
