Iran's Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Hassan Fairouz Abadi commented Wednesday on reported Israeli threats to strike Iranand warned that Tehran would retaliate with a "surprising punishment" if Israel pursued such a "mistake."
"Even though the likelihood for such an attack is low, we see the threat as a serious threat and are on full alert," Abadi told Iran's Fars news agency.

He further warned the US against striking in Syria, as NATO forces have done in Libya, saying: "The military regime in Damascus is at the forefront of our dealings with the occupying Zionist regime...
