    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Reporters at the scene in the Mezzeh district of the Syrian capital saw smoke rising from the rubble of a building that had been flattened, and emergency vehicles parked outside.

    A Lebanese security source told Reuters that Mohammad Reza Zahedi, a senior commander of the Revolutionary Guards, was among those killed in the attack.

    “Hossein Akbari, ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Damascus, and his family were not harmed in the Israeli attack,” the Nour news agency said.

    The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said: “Israeli missiles … destroyed the building of an annexe to the Iranian embassy … in Damascus, killing six people.”

    Syria’s official Sana news agency earlier reported that “our air defence systems confronted enemy targets in the vicinity of Damascus”.

    The incident came days after the observatory reported Israeli strikes in Syria that killed 53 people, including 38 soldiers and seven members of Hezbollah.
