MojNews-Heavy punishment awaits for Zionist Regime for its action to assassinate 5 Iranian military advisors in Syria, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says. 

Issuing a message, Ghalibaf also extended condolences to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, the Resistance forces, the Iranian nation, and the bereaved families over the heinous terrorist attack.

The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) also issued a statement on Saturday afternoon confirming the assassination of advisory forces in an Israeli strike on Syria.

Once again, the evil and criminal Zionist regime invaded Damascus, the capital of Syria, the IRGC statement read.

The statement added during the Israeli attack, several Syrian forces were also martyred.

In a similar air strike, Israel assassinated Razi Mousavi, a top military advisor in Damascus on December 25.

At the time Iran asserted that Israel will “certainly pay” for its actions.

Days later, on January 16 in the dead of the night, the IRGC responded to the vicious act by firing missiles at the Mossad espionage headquarters in the Iraqi Kurdistan region.
