A senior commander in Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO), was killed during an airstrike over the weekend in Syria, according to local officials and reports.

Iraqi security and local militia officials “could not confirm the identity of the commander, who they said was killed alongside three other men travelling in a vehicle with him,” Reuters reported. “The vehicle was carrying weapons across the Iraqi border and was hit after it had entered Syrian territory, two Iraqi security officials separately said.”
