TWO Iranian Revolutionary Guards members have been reportedly killed during an Israeli attack in Syria, Iran’s state media has claimed.

The deaths would be the first Iranian casualties of the war between Israel and Hamas.

“Mohammed Ali Ataei Shoorcheh and Panah Taghizadeh… were martyred by the Zionist usurper enemy while conducting an advisory mission in the Syrian Islamic resistance front,” the Guards’ Sepah News website said.

A statement did not give details of the attack but stated that both members served as military advisers and were working in Syria.

It comes after Israel appeared to be targeting Hezbollah with strikes earlier today, according to a war monitor.
