A top Iranian official visiting Damascus on Monday said Israel will regret its “latest aggression” on Syria and that the entire Muslim world should be ready to defend the Syrian people, Israel Hayom reported.
Saeed Jalili, the head of Iran’s National Security Council, also said Iran supports any initiative for dialogue between President Bashar Assad and his opponents to end the civil war in Syria, but insisted that any talks be held in the Syrian capital, Damascus.
Jalili spoke to reporters at a news conference in Damascus at the end of a three-day visit to Syria.
“Just as it regretted its aggressions after the 33-day, 22-day and eight-day wars, today the Zionist entity will regret the aggression it launched against Syria,” Jalili said, referring to past wars between Israel and the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah and Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.
IAF fighter jets reportedly struck a site near the Syrian capital, Damascus, last week, targeting what U.S. officials said were ground-to-air missiles apparently heading for Hezbollah.
Syria said the strike targeted a military research facility and vowed retaliation, but has so far refrained from any response.
