Al-Dahhak continued that the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus is “another part of Israel’s series of attacks against” Syria.
Since October 7, Israel has launched several missile attacks on Syria’s two main airports in Damascus and the northern city of Aleppo. Also, this regime has claimed that it targeted Iran’s military positions in Syria.
The Syrian ambassador continued: Damascus emphasizes that Israel’s attacks cannot dissuade us from our decisive and national options and positions in support of the rights of the Palestinian people and the return of the occupied Golan.
Syria’s ambassador to the United Nations emphasized: The coincidence of Israeli attacks with attacks by terrorist organizations once again confirms the continuous coordination and division of roles between the occupying regime of Israel and its terrorist tools.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir abdollahian wrote on his user account on the X social network following the attack by the Israeli regime: Following the Israeli regime’s terrorist attack on the diplomatic building of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s consulate in Damascus and the martyrdom of several of our country’s official military advisers, the Swiss embassy official was called to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs by the US director general as the protector of US interests in Iran. In this summons, the dimensions of the terrorist attack and the crime of the Israeli regime were explained and the responsibility of the American government was emphasized. An important message was sent to the American government as a supporter of the Zionist regime. America must be held accountable.
