Issuing a statement early on Sunday, the IRGC said that the anti-Zionist operation was carried out against certain targets in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories as part of the response to the Israeli regime's numerous crimes, including the terrorist attack on the consular section of Iran's embassy in the Syrian capital.
The IRGC said that the details of the operation will be announced soon.
The Israeli regime attacked Iran's consulate in the Syrian capital of Damascus on April 1. The Israeli aggression led to the destruction of the entire building and the martyrdom and injury of the entire people inside it.
Seven of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) military advisors were martyred following the Israeli attack on Iran's consulate in Damascus on Monday, IRGC said in a statement.
Reacting to the Israeli aggression, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kan'ani on Monday night said that the Islamic Republic of Iran, while reserving its rights to take countermeasures, decides on the type of reaction and punishment of the aggressor.
