Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has accused the West of providing financial, military, and media support to Israel, claiming they too will become targets of revenge attacks.

"Undoubtedly, this [Israel] regime and its supporters will face the consequences of this terrorist and brutal crime, and the punishment of the perpetrators of the crime is definite and irreversible," stated Raisi during a phone conversation with his Syrian counterpart Bashar al-Asad on Tuesday, as reported by IRNA.

Raisi's remarks come in the wake of an Israeli attack on Tehran’s consulate in Damascus, which resulted in the death of seven Revolutionary Guards, including two generals on Monday.

The bombing represents an unprecedented escalation of hostilities that began on October 7, when Iran-backed Islamist militia Hamas invaded Israel, resulting in the death of 1,200 mostly civilians and the capturing of 250 or more hostages.

"Unfortunately, the inaction and weak position resulting from the fear of some Arab countries have prevented the adoption of a unified Islamic stance against the Zionist regime and have made the regime more audacious in committing crimes," he added, in an attack directed at the Muslim world.

Tehran has particularly openly slammed countries such as the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain for their diplomatic ties with Israel, which resulted from the US-brokered Abraham Accords of 2020.

Tensions have spread throughout the Middle East since the commencement of the Gaza conflict. Thus far, Tehran has avoided direct clashes with Israel while backing proxies involved in assaults on Israeli and US interests.

Iranian authorities often employ aggressive rhetoric, and chants of "Death to Israel" persist as a regular occurrence at state-sponsored gatherings.
