Iran's Khamenei says Israel 'must be punished' for Syria embassy attack | Oneindia
Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, declared on Wednesday that Israel "will face punishment and it will happen" for its assault on the Iranian embassy compound in Syria, which resulted in the deaths of senior IRGC generals.
In a significant escalation of Israel's conflicts with regional foes, suspected Israeli warplanes conducted a precise strike on Iran's consulate in the Syrian capital on April 1, resulting in the deaths of seven IRGC Quds Force officers responsible for overseeing Iran's armed proxies.
According to Ynet News and Iran International reports, Tehran has secretly selected Mojtaba Khamenei, the second son of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, as Iran's next leader. The decision reportedly came during a confidential September 26 Assembly of Experts meeting, called due to the 85-year-old leader's alleged illness. Despite initial opposition, 60 assembly members unanimously approved the succession under pressure. Sources suggest power transfer might occur during the elder Khamenei's lifetime to ensure smooth transition.

In a grave escalation of warnings, the United States has issued what may be its most severe caution to Iran yet, following rising tensions in the Middle East. Washington has reportedly communicated to Tehran that any further attacks on Israel could trigger a forceful and unrestrained response from Tel Aviv.

This warning comes amid increased hostilities in the region, with both nations ramping up their military readiness. Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has responded defiantly, vowing a "crushing response" if Israel or the U.S. acts against Iran or its allies. The U.S. stance highlights the high-stakes environment, with officials watching closely for any potential shift in Iran’s position as the region teeters on the brink of wider conflict.

The US military has launched a series of airstrikes targeting sites in Syria associated with Iran-aligned groups, a day after an assault on America’s largest command centre in the region. The strikes, conducted by US Central Command, were in retaliation for recent attacks on US personnel stationed in Syria. Centcom emphasised that the action was a direct response to the escalating violence aimed at American forces, underscoring the US's commitment to protecting its troops and partners in the region.
The airstrikes, which hit multiple sites believed to be linked to Iranian-backed militias, aim to degrade the ability of these groups to plan and execute future attacks against US forces. The US military presence in Syria, primarily focused on combating ISIS remnants, has faced increasing threats from Iran-aligned militias, complicating efforts to stabilise the region. Centcom's statement reinforced that such attacks on US forces would not be tolerated, sending a strong message to Tehran-backed militants. The escalation comes amid growing tensions in Syria, where Iran-backed groups maintain a significant presence, particularly in the east.

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
