An IRGC Colonel serving as a military advisor in Syria was assassinated in a roadside explosive device detonated near Damascus.

Colonel Davood Jaafari, a senior aerospace advisor, was assassinated on Tuesday morning according to a statement released last night by the public relations unit of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps.

The IRGC held the criminal Israeli entity responsible for the murder, vowing an inevitable response.

This would not be the first time that the Israeli occupation entity murders IRGC members in Syria, who are working as advisors for the Syrian Arab Army combating terrorist groups, on top of which is ISIS.

Earlier in March this year, the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps announced that two Iranian soldiers were killed in an Israeli attack in the vicinity of Damascus.

"There is no doubt that the Israeli occupation will pay for this crime," the IRGC said in a statement.

Following the Israeli aggression, the IRGC officially announced a few days later the targeting of an Israeli "strategic center" in Iraq with missiles.

According to an IRGC statement, a "strategic center for conspiracy and mischiefs of the Zionists was targeted by powerful precision missiles fired by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps," following the Israeli occupation's crimes.

The IRGC warned that the repetition of any evil acts by "Israel" will be faced by "harsh, decisive, and destructive responses."
