Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on Wednesday that Israel "must be punished, and it shall be" for attacking the Iranian embassy compound in Syria.
In a major escalation of Israel's war with regional adversaries, suspected Israeli warplanes bombed Iran's consulate in the Syrian capital on April 1 in a strike that Iran said killed seven military advisers.
"When they attack the consulate, it is as if they have attacked our soil," Khamenei said in a speech marking the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. "The evil regime made a mistake and must be punished, and it shall be," he added.
