Iranian President Condemns Israeli Missile Strike on IRGC Advisors in Syria

Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi strongly condemned the assassination of five Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) advisors in Syria, labeling the act as "cowardly."

The IRGC had earlier announced that four of its members, who were on a military advisory mission in Syria, had been martyred in an Israeli strike on a residential building in Damascus. Subsequently, it was revealed that a fifth advisor had also succumbed to their injuries.

In response to the recent actions of the usurping Zionist regime, Iran's president expressed condemnation and stated that these crimes, which take place with the support of hegemonic countries, particularly the United States, and the indifference of international organizations, will undoubtedly further tarnish the already dark record of those who claim to advocate for human rights.

In a recent statement, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi extended his condolences to the families of the martyrs, the Iranian leadership, and the entire nation. He also reaffirmed Iran's commitment to its advisory mission in Syria, which was initiated at the request of Damascus. This mission aims to assist the war-torn Arab country in defending itself against foreign-backed militants who have been engaged in conflict with the democratically-elected Syrian government since 2011.

Furthermore, it is notable that the Israeli regime has intensified its airstrikes on Syria since early October. This escalation coincides with the commencement of the ongoing genocidal war against the Gaza Strip.
