IRGC says strike on Israel a response to alleged IDF strike on consular compound in Damascus
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issues a statement confirming its launch of an attack on Israel, saying it is in response to the IDF’s strike on a consular compound in Damascus in which several IRGC members were killed, including two generals, earlier this month.
The IRGC says it will hit specific targets in Israel with dozens of drones and missiles, apparently cruise missiles.
