A top advisor to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei of Iran is warning Israel that his country will respond to Israeli attacks in Syria and the reaction will surprise Israel. The advisor said, "We expect the resistance in Syria and Lebanon to stop the crimes of the United States and Israel. Israel is helpless and cannot execute its threats against Iran. The advisor warned that if Israel attacks Lebanon, "Hezbollah will flatten Israel."
Channel 11 News reported, Monday evening that it is believed that the target of the attack attributed to Israel Sunday night in Syria was a warehouse where recent Iranian weapons shipments were stored. It has also been reported that Israel has been acting cautiously in recent months in Syria for fear of an Iranian response, and that any Israeli response is considered against the prospect of Iran's response.
