An adviser to Iran’s supreme leader warns that Israeli embassies are “no longer safe” after a strike in the Syrian capital that Tehran blamed on Israel killed seven members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps last week.

“The embassies of the Zionist regime are no longer safe,” Yahya Rahim Safavi, senior adviser to Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is quoted as saying by the ISNA news agency.

The news agency also publishes a graphic that it claims showcases nine types of Iranian missiles it says are capable of hitting Israel.
