Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps denies a report that 11 of its members were killed in an alleged Israeli airstrike in Syria.

The unverified report by the Saudi Al-Hadath TV channel claimed 11 senior IRGC members were killed in an Israeli strike targeting Syria’s Damascus International Airport late Thursday.

IRGC spokesman Brig. Gen. Ramezan Sharif calls the report “baseless” in a statement carried by Iranian media.
