7 Military Advisors From Iran Killed in Israeli Airstrike on Homs

Seven Iranian military advisors were among those killed in an airstrike by Israel on a Syrian air base on Sunday.
The bodies of the Iranians were flown back to Iran and funerals were planned for later on Tuesday, Tasnim News Agency reported.
Russia and Syria said Monday that Israeli warplanes struck an air base in Homs and that the Syrian air defense systems shot down five of the eight missiles fired. Interfax news agency cited the Russian Defense Ministry as saying that two Israeli F-15 warplanes carried out the strikes from Lebanese air space on the T-4 air base on Sunday.
Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi described the attack as “a blatant violation of international law which would strengthen terrorists.”
