Iran and Israel Exchange Threats After Strike on Iranian Commanders

Iran has repeatedly threatened retaliation following a deadly April 1 strike on an Iranian Embassy building in Damascus. The United States and Israel are reportedly preparing for a possible Iranian response. Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has reiterated these threats during a speech for Eid al-Fitr. Tensions have been heightened by Israeli strikes against Hamas in Gaza and an attack on Iran's consulate in Syria, which Israel has not acknowledged involvement in. Russia, Syria, and Iran have blamed Israel for the attack.
