Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

[Regnum] Iran produces nine types of missiles with a range sufficient to reach targets in Israel, ISNA reported.

"After the crime of the Zionist regime, which was the attack on the Iranian consulate building in Damascus, Iran’s response to this crime will cast a shadow on Israel," the journalists said.
Iran is the place where embassies are liable to be "occupied" or otherwise by government street gangs.
The publication provided an infographic depicting nine missiles produced in Iran. The list includes ballistic missiles "Sajil", "Kheibar", "Emad", "Shahab-3", "Ghadr", "Pave", "Fattah-2", "Kheibar Shekan" and "Haj Qassem".

As Regnum reported, on the evening of April 1, the Israeli Air Force launched a missile attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus. One of the leaders of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Mohammad Reza Zahedi, was among those killed in the strike. Tasnim news agency reported that five people were killed and 12 injured in an Israeli airstrike on the consulate.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry warned that Tehran reserves the right to take countermeasures and respond to the attack. Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei addressed Israel in Hebrew, threatening retaliation for the attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria.

The Russian Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus. First Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN, Dmitry Polyansky, said on April 2 that Russia requested an open meeting of the UN Security Council after the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus.

Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov, in turn, said that the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus is a violation of international law and an act of aggression. Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said that it would be interesting to see what would happen if Iran hypothetically attacked the American embassy in Israel.
