The Al Maza district, packed with embassies, shook from the extent of the explosion in which 7 Revolutionary Guardsmen were killed. A security source estimated that the echoes were also heard in Assad's palace.
The most senior person killed in the attack is Mohammad Reza-Zahdi, commander of the Iranian Quds Force in Syria and Lebanon. The elimination was multidimensional. It is intended to convey a resounding and powerful message to the Iranian regime, which destabilizes the Middle East.
