Iran issued a warning to the United States and its allies that any strike on Syria will lead to a strike on Israel.

Fox News reported:

A senior Iranian lawmaker says Israel will be the “first victim” of any U.S.-led military strike on Syria, predicting that President Bashar Assad’s regime would fight back against the Jewish state.

“No military attack will be waged against Syria,” Hossein Sheikholeslam, the director general of the Iranian parliament’s International Affairs bureau, was quoted saying Monday by Iran’s Fars News Agency, according to the Washington Free Beacon.

“Yet, if such an incident takes place… the Zionist regime will be the first victim of a military attack on Syria,” he added.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that his country would respond “with force” if Syria does anything to harm it. His comments were his sternest on record on Syria.
