The EU said Tuesday that it was “alarmed by the Israeli strike” on the Iranian consulate in Syria’s Damascus and warned against any escalation after Tehran vowed revenge.
In continuation of the support for the Zionist regime, EU spokesman Peter Stano said, “In this highly tense regional situation, it is really of utmost importance to show restraint because the further escalation in the region is in no one’s interests, ” Agence France Presse (AFP) reported.
The Israeli regime attacked Iran’s consulate in the Syrian capital of Damascus on Monday evening. The Israeli aggression led to the destruction of the entire building and the martyrdom and injury of the entire people inside it.
Seven of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) military advisors were martyred in the terrorist attack.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kan’ani said on Monday night that the Islamic Republic of Iran reserves the right to take countermeasures and will decide on the type of reaction and punishment of the aggressor on its own.
Earlier on Monday, Iran’s Ambassador to Syria stressed that the country will give a decisive response to the Israeli regime.
