Hawzah News Agency- The text of the statement of Al-Mustafa International University is as follows:

Imam Khamenei:

The evil regime will be punished by the hands of our brave men. We will make them regret this crime and others like it, by God's will.

Praise be to God, the sincere promise of the painful punishment of the Zionist criminal regime has come to pass through the efforts of the brave men of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Islamic Resistance Front, and the usurper regime of Israel has received the punishment of a small part of its shameful deeds after countless crimes.

The response of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the criminal attack by the usurper Israeli regime on the consulate of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Syrian capital of Damascus and crimes against diplomatic places, in accordance with international law and Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, is considered the legitimate right of the Iranian nation to defend itself and is supported by the brave people. We are proud of the Islamic Republic of Iran and this military operation is supported by the public opinion of the world.

Al-Mustafa International University, appreciating the resourcefulness and bravery of the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the resistance front in response to the countless crimes of the Zionist regime and all-round support for the crushing response to this rebellious regime, under the wise leadership of Imam Khamenei, declares that the Islamic Republic of Iran acts completely from a strong position and according to international law, any miscalculation in warmongering by the usurper Zionist regime and its supporters will be responded with a more intense punishment.

It should be noted that the Israeli regime attacked Iran's consulate in the Syrian capital of Damascus on April 1. The Israeli aggression led to the destruction of the entire building and the martyrdom and injury of the entire people inside it.

Seven of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) military advisors were martyred following the Israeli attack on Iran's consulate in Damascus on Monday, IRGC said in a statement.

Reacting to the Israeli aggression, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kan'ani on Monday night said that the Islamic Republic of Iran, while reserving its rights to take countermeasures, decides on the type of reaction and punishment of the aggressor.

In response to the Israeli aggression, Iran attacks the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories with a barrage of drones and missiles.
