Moscow accuses Israel of carrying out an “unacceptable” attack on a diplomatic building in Syria, after air strikes destroyed the Iranian embassy’s consular annex in Damascus.
“We strongly condemn this unacceptable attack against the Iranian consular mission in Syria,” the foreign ministry said in a statement.
Israel has not publicly commented on the reported attack, while Syrian and Iranian officials said Israel was behind the strikes.
In a night rally held in Palestine Square in central Tehran, hundreds of demonstrators, waving flags of Iran and Palestine, call for “revenge” and chant slogans of “Death to America” and “Death to Israel.”
They also burn Israeli and United States flags, according to AFP journalists at the scene.
