An Israeli airstrike has destroyed the Iranian consulate in Damascus, killing at least six including a senior military commander, Syrian state media said Monday.
The strike killed Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards commander Brig-Gen Mohammad Reza Zahedi, according to Iran state media.Zahdi previously led the Iranian elite Quds Force in Lebanon and Syria until 2016.There was no official confirmation from Iran.Syrian foreign minister Faisal Mekdad told the media after meeting Iran's ambassador, Hossein Akbari, that "several" people were killed, without offering further information.
Such airstrikes have escalated in recent months against the backdrop of Israel's war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip and ongoing clashes between Israel's military and Hezbollah on the Lebanon-Israel border.Though it rarely acknowledges its actions in Syria, Israel has said it targets bases of Iran-allied militant groups such as Lebanon'sHezbollah, which has sent thousands of fighters to support Syrian President Bashar Assad's forces.
