Iran's military adviser, Reza Zareyi, along with two Hezbollah members, was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Syria's Banias port.

Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) naval wing officer and military adviser Reza Zareyi was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Syria's Banias port. Two Hezbollah members were also reportedly killed in the attack.

The IRGC's naval wing confirmed the death of Reza Zareyi and the two Hezbollah members but did not provide further details about the incident.

Since 2011, Iran and Russia have been supporting the Syrian government of Bashar al-Assad in the war against terrorism.

Israel has intensified its attacks on Iranian targets in Syria, especially after recent escalations in the region, including Hamas' military operations in Gaza.

This incident follows a similar attack in January when five Iranian military advisers and several Syrian army officers were killed in an Israeli airstrike in Damascus.
