Storyline:
A total of seven people, including two senior Iranian commanders, were killed in Israeli airstrikes on the building of the Iranian Consulate in the Syrian capital Damascus on Monday, according to Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC).
When asked about the incident by CNN, the Israel Defense Forces said it does not comment on foreign reports.
The Syrian Defense Ministry said in a statement that the attack occurred at about 17:00 local time (1400 GMT), when Israel launched an aerial aggression from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, targeting the building of the Iranian Consulate in Damascus.
Syria's air defense intercepted some of the missiles, it noted, adding the attack resulted in fatalities and injuries.
Iranian Ambassador to Syria Hossein Akbari, speaking to reporters in front of the Iranian Embassy in Damascus after the attack, said five to seven people were killed in the attack.
He added that Israel's F-35 fighter jets had launched six missiles from the occupied Golan Heights in a "criminal", targeted offense on the Iranian Consulate's building.
According to Iran's semi-official Tasnim news agency, Mohammad-Reza Zahedi, a commander of the Quds Force of IRGC, and his deputy, Mohammad-Hadi Haji Rahimi, were killed in the attack.
Twelve others were injured in the attack, the report added.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the strikes resulted in the death of eight people, including a high-ranking commander of the Quds Force in Syria and Lebanon, as well as two Iranian advisors and five members from the IRGC.
Local residents expressed strong condemnation of Israel regarding the deathly incident.
This is the second Israeli airstrikes on Syria within two days.
On March 31, Israeli airstrikes targeted the outskirts of Damascus, while on Monday, they struck a consulate adjacent to the Iranian Embassy. The building attacked on Monday was rented by Iran long ago and served as the official residence of the Iranian ambassador to Syria and the consulate for Iranian diplomats. The airstrikes occurred on a busy and vital road connecting the east and west of Damascus during peak hours when people were commuting home from work.
