Iran has vowed to seek revenge on Israel following a deadly air strike on its embassy in Syria. The attack, which has been blamed on Israel, marks a rare direct confrontation between the two countries in their ongoing proxy conflict over the war in Gaza.
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has stated that the crime will not go unanswered, according to the semi-official Tasnim news agency. This threat of retaliation has raised tensions between Iran and Israel even further, with both sides already engaged in a war of words over the situation in Gaza.
The air strike on the Iranian embassy in Syria, which took place on Sunday, resulted in several casualties and significant damage to the embassy building. Iran has condemned the attack as a violation of international law and an act of aggression by Israel.
This incident is just the latest in a series of escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, with both countries accusing each other of supporting militant groups in the region. Iran has long been a supporter of Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that governs Gaza, while Israel views Iran as a major threat to its security.
As the situation continues to unfold, the international community is watching closely to see how Iran will choose to retaliate against Israel. Many fear that this latest incident could further destabilize the already volatile region and lead to an all-out conflict between the two countries.
