Hezbollah warns that Israel will pay for allegedly killing high-level Iran Revolutionary Guards officials in a strike on the country’s consulate in Damascus, Syria.
“Certainly, this crime will not pass without the enemy receiving punishment and revenge,” Hezbollah says in a statement. The IRGC says the strike killed seven IRGC members including two brigadier generals. Israel has not commented.
