(The Guardian) Israeli airstrike in Syria kills senior Iranian Revolutionary Guards adviser - sources and state media
An Israeli airstrike outside Damascus, the Syrian capital, on Monday killed a senior adviser in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, three security sources have told Reuters.
The adviser, known by his nickname Sayyed Razi Mousavi, was responsible for coordinating the military alliance between Syria and Iran, the sources said.
The reported death has not yet been independently verified by the Guardian.
Iran’s state television announced that Sayyed Razi Mousavi had been killed, describing him as one of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards’ oldest advisers in Syria, Reuters reports. It said he had been “among those accompanying Qassem Soleimani”, the head of the Guards’ elite Quds Force who had been killed in 2020, in a US drone attack in Iraq.
Three security sources told Reuters that an Israeli airstrike outside Damascus on Monday killed Mousavi.
There was no immediate comment from Israel’s military. The reports have not yet been independently verified by the Guardian.
