Israeli Strike in Damascus Kills Iranian Revolutionary Guard Members

TL;DR Summary
An Israeli airstrike on Damascus destroyed a building used by the Iranian paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, killing at least four Iranians, including two commanders, and a Syrian. The strike targeted a residential building in a diplomatic neighborhood, and the Israeli military did not comment on the incident. This comes amid escalating tensions in the region, including Israel's offensive in Gaza and recent cross-border attacks. Israel has carried out hundreds of strikes in Syria in recent years, targeting Iran-allied militant groups, and tensions have also risen along the Lebanon-Israel border.
