Strike on Iran's consulate in Syria is 'turning point,' Hezbollah head says
- Country:
- Lebanon
The head of Lebanon's powerful armed group Hezbollah said on Friday that an Israeli strike on Iran's consulate in the Syrian capital this week marked a "turning point" since Oct. 7, when Palestinian group Hamas waged a cross-border attack on Israel.
The strike killed seven members of Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps, among them a senior commander of the Quds Force, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi. Iran has vowed revenge.
