Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi warned Israel against a “reckless” retaliation, stating that such action would provoke “a decisive and much stronger response.” Iran had repeatedly threatened to strike Israel in retaliation for a deadly April 1 air strike on its Damascus consular annex, and Washington had repeatedly warned in recent days that the reprisals were imminent.
