Lieutenant Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Brigadier General Hossein Salami addressed yesterday the reports of the Israeli air raid against Syria which killed a number of Hezbollah members and an Iranian military adviser last Sunday, claiming it "will certainly be retaliated with a crushing response," he told the Iranian al-Alam news channel.
"In addition to the reopening of the West Bank (sic) (front), especially in retaliation for the incident, we will surely take revenge for the attack with a specific move," the FARS news agency reported.
