Original Note:
Iranian embassy was not bombed. A house *near* the embassy was hit, to eliminate military targets inside it. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/02/middleeast/iran-response-israel-damascus-consulate-attack-intl-hnk/index.html This is different from previous attacks carried out by Iran, which bombed the actual embassy of Israel in Argentina, killing 29 and injuring another 242 civilians: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1992_Buenos_Aires_Israeli_embassy_bombing
