The roots of Iran-Israel shadow war trace back to the overthrow of Iran's last monarch, Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, in 1979. Israel, who has been waging a war against the terrorist organisation Hamas for six months, now needs to strengthen another front. Iran has said that it is prepared for war and will deliver a "slap" to Israel.
Iran's remarks come after an Israel airstrike hit their consulate in Damascus, killing at least seven Iranians, including two generals. Israel has repeatedly targeted Iran-linked assets in Syria over past few months, this was first time an attack struck an Iranian diplomatic building.

An Iranian general killed in a strike in Syria’s capital was a member of Hezbollah’s Shura Council, the powerful Lebanese terror group’s decision-making body, a source close to the movement said.
The April 1 airstrike leveled the Iranian embassy’s consular annex in Damascus, killing seven Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members, including two generals.
One of them was Mohammad Reza Zahedi, a senior commander in the Quds Force, the Guards’ foreign operations arm.
Zahedi was the only non-Lebanese on Hezbollah’s eight-member Shura Council, the equivalent of the powerful Shiite terror group’s political bureau, led by Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah, the source said, requesting anonymity because the matter

Palestinians returning to Khan Younis after Israeli withdrawal find an unrecognizable city
DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Stunned Palestinians found their home city unrecognizable Monday as they filtered in to salvage what they could from the vast destruction left by Israeli troops who withdrew from southern Gaza’s Khan Younis a day earlier after months of fighting and bombardment.
With thousands of buildings destroyed or damaged, families tried to find their homes along streets bulldozed down to the dirt, surrounded by landscapes of rubble and debris that were once blocks of apartments and businesses. On other blocks, buildings still stood but were gutted shells, scorched and full of holes, with partially shattered upper floors dangling off precipitously.
Scenes in Khan Younis underscored what been one of the world’s most destructive lethal military assaults in recent decades, leaving most of the tiny coastal territory unlivable for its 2.3 million people. It portended what is likely to happen in Gaza’s southernmost town of Rafah, where half of Gaza’s uprooted population is now crowded, if Israel goes ahead with plans to invade it.
Biden vows ‘ironclad’ US commitment to Israel amid fears of Iran attack after Israeli bombing of consular building in Damascus. Biden’s pledge of support to Israel at White House, intended as a deterrent, came a few hours after Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, repeated a threat to strike back against Israel over the Damascus bombing that killed 12 people, including Gen Mohammad Reza Zahedi, a senior figure in Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and six other guard members.
Iran aims to contain fallout in Israel response, will not be hasty, sources say.
DUBAI/WASHINGTON, April 11 (Reuters) - Iran has signalled to Washington that it will respond to Israel's attack on its Syrian embassy in a way that aims to avoid major escalation and it will not act hastily, as Tehran presses demands including a Gaza truce, Iranian sources said. Iran's message to Washington was conveyed by Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian during a visit on Sunday to the Gulf Arab state of Oman, which has often acted as an intermediary between Tehran and Washington, the sources said.
White House spokesperson declined to comment on any messages from Iran but said the US has communicated to Iran that it was not involved in the strike on the embassy. Iran's foreign ministry was not immediately available to comment.
Omani govt did not immediately respond to emailed questions for comment, sent during the Muslim Eid al-Fitr holiday. A source familiar with U.S. intelligence was not aware of the message conveyed via Oman but said Iran has “been very clear” its response to the attack on its Damascus embassy compound would be “controlled” and “non-escalatory” & planned “to use regional proxies to launch a number of attacks on Israel.”
The diplomatic messaging points to a cautious approach by Iran as it weighs how to respond to the April 1 attack in a way that deters Israel from further such actions, but avoids a military escalation that could suck in the US.
