A senior Iranian commander was killed in a suspected Israeli strike in Syria. Iranian media say.
Seyyed Razi Mousavi was “an experienced military adviser” to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, the semi-official Tasnim news agency said.
It says he was killed in an air strike on the Sayyida Zeinab area south-east of Damascus. Israel has carried out military strikes in Syria for years, against what it says are Iran-linked targets.
The strikes have increased in frequency over the past months following Hamas’ attack on 7 October.

Oh boy, I really hope this isn’t a powder keg
Israel could use a vibe check at this point.
Nah, that’s normal stuff in Syria.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

Iranian forces have been present in Syria since the early stages of the Syrian civil war, where they helped support the regime of President Bashar al-Assad against widespread rebellion to his rule.
He was one of most senior IRGC operatives in Syria, according to Tasnim, and helped co-ordinate the relationship between Tehran and Damascus.
Earlier this month, Iran accused Israel of killing two members of the Revolutionary Guards in Syria.

Is Israel’s aim so shitty that they can’t shoot straight? Gaza is in the opposite direction of Syria.
Iran funds Hamas so Israel probably trying to send a message.
Probably trying to deter Hezbollah as well.
Oh so they were aiming for Lebanon and hit Syria instead?
Oh you mean they were aiming for Iran but hit Syria instead?
Gotta keep Hezbollah and the West Bank on their toes I guess, consequences be damned.
Hamas is an Iranian proxy…
Syria is not Iran. If Iran is your concern go bomb Iran and see how that goes for you.
Talk about lacking context
So by your argument we should bomb Israel if we want to attack the US?
Only if the Jewish overlords say so, duh
