Iran has condemned an alleged Israeli attack on a building near its embassy in the Syrian capital Damascus. The Syrian state news agency SANA reported that the strike took place on Monday, causing material damage but no casualties.
Tensions escalating
The attack comes amid heightened tensions between Iran and Israel. In recent months, there have been a number of airstrikes on Iranian targets in Syria, which Israel has been accused of carrying out. Iran has denied any involvement in the attacks, but has vowed to retaliate if its interests are targeted.
Iran's response
Following the latest attack, Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian condemned the alleged Israeli aggression. He said that the attack was a "clear violation of international law" and that Iran would "respond appropriately."
The attack has raised concerns about a possible escalation of tensions between Iran and Israel. The two countries have been involved in a long-running conflict, and the latest attack could further destabilize the region.
International reaction
The international community has expressed concern about the escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. The United Nations has called for both sides to exercise restraint and to avoid any actions that could lead to further violence.
The United States has also expressed concern about the attacks on Iranian targets in Syria. The US has said that it is committed to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and that it will take action to defend its interests in the region.
