Suspected Israeli warplanes bombed Iran’s embassy in Syria on Monday, a marked escalation in a war pitting Israel against its regional adversaries, and Tehran said the strike killed seven military advisers including three senior commanders.
Reuters reporters at the site in the Mezzeh district of Damascus saw emergency workers clambering atop rubble of a destroyed building inside the diplomatic compound, adjacent to the main embassy building. Emergency vehicles were parked outside. An Iranian flag hung from a pole by the debris.
Right now Russia is tied up in Ukraine. For Israel, this is the perfect opportunity to get rid of Iran. Once the war in Ukraine ends, Israel will be in deep shit because Russia can provide support to Iran and other regional Israeli enemies. Furthermore, the Israeli economy has also been severely damaged by the emmigration that was triggered by the war. Their reputation as a Jewish safe haven is toast. Time is running out.
