Israeli strike in Syria kills Iranian commander, Iran says
Seyyed Razi Mousavi, a key member of the Revolutionary Guards, died in an Israeli strike, Iran says.
A senior Iranian commander was killed in a suspected Israeli strike in Syria. Iranian media say.
Seyyed Razi Mousavi was "an experienced military adviser" to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, the semi-official Tasnim news agency said.
It says he was killed in an air strike on the Sayyida Zeinab area south-east of Damascus. Israel has carried out military strikes in Syria for years, against what it says are Iran-linked targets.
The strikes have increased in frequency over the past months following Hamas' attack on 7 October.
Oh boy, I really hope this isn't a powder keg
Israel could use a vibe check at this point.
Nah, that's normal stuff in Syria.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A senior Iranian commander was killed in a suspected Israeli strike in Syria.
Seyyed Razi Mousavi was "an experienced military adviser" to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, the semi-official Tasnim news agency said.
It says he was killed in an air strike on the Sayyida Zeinab area south-east of Damascus.
Iranian forces have been present in Syria since the early stages of the Syrian civil war, where they helped support the regime of President Bashar al-Assad against widespread rebellion to his rule.
He was one of most senior IRGC operatives in Syria, according to Tasnim, and helped co-ordinate the relationship between Tehran and Damascus.
Earlier this month, Iran accused Israel of killing two members of the Revolutionary Guards in Syria.

Is Israel's aim so shitty that they can't shoot straight? Gaza is in the opposite direction of Syria.
Gotta keep Hezbollah and the West Bank on their toes I guess, consequences be damned.
