Mohammad Reza Zahedi

Let's talk about some of those.

Mohammad Reza Zahidi, he was the Quds Force officer, Margaret, that was killed in a strike in Damascus.

Mm-hmm.

April 1st, 2024, same day as the World Central Kitchen attack.

Who is Mohammad Reza Zahidi? He is the head of the Quds Force unit that enables and supplies Hezbollah.

Hezbollah is firing into Israel every single day.

From Lebanon?

From Lebanon.

And, uh, Gadai Zilberman, who was the military attaché to the Israeli embassy, pulls me aside before the meeting and says, "Uh, Brett, I gotta tell you something.

We're gonna do an airstrike, uh, in Damascus against Mohammed Reza Zahedi, who was the Quds Force commander, who we've known for years, who kind of enables Hezbollah and everything." And honestly, my initial reaction, given that Hezbollah was firing into I-Israel every day, was, "That's a totally legitimate operation." He said, "There's one more thing.

Uh, the Iranians might say that the building he's in is a part of their embassy in Damascus, but it's not." I said, "Well, that'd be a problem." I gotta say, Dan, we've never seen anything to support that it is part of an embassy.

But in any event, the Israelis did that strike.
