Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said: "We do not confirm the killing of Quds Force fighters in the Israeli raid on Syria, and Israel realizes that the time for striking and striking has passed, so it is moving with caution, and there is no treatment for its aggressive nature except through resistance on all fronts."

Khatib Zadeh indicated that Iran's presence in Syria is advisory, warning that "whoever wants to disrupt it will receive a firm response."

And media reports talked about the killing of at least 10 people, including Syrians and Iranians, in the air strikes launched by the Israeli army, at dawn on Wednesday, on sites south of Damascus.

Following the raids, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that his country would not allow an Israeli position in Syria.
