LONDON (Reuters) – The secretary of Iran’s National Security Council warned Israel on Tuesday of a firm and “deterrent” response if it continued attacking targets in Syria.
“If these actions continue, we will activate some calculated measures as a deterrent and as a firm and appropriate response to teach a lesson to the criminal and lying rulers of Israel,” Ali Shamkhani was quoted as saying by Fars news agency.
