Iran has informed the U.S. that it will refrain from responding to an Israeli airstrike on the consulate in Damascus if a ceasefire is reached in Gaza. This was reported today, April 8, by the Jerusalem Post newspaper with reference to the Iranian agency Jadeh Iran.

According to the Iranian portal, such information was received from an anonymous Arab diplomatic source. An unnamed Arab official added, "if America manages to contain the situation, it will be a great success for the Biden administration, and we can build on that."

It is noted that this information appeared against the backdrop of the resumption of negotiations on a ceasefire and the release of hostages between Israel and Hamas in Cairo, as well as because Tel Aviv continues to prepare for a possible response to the airstrike on Damascus, for which Syria and Iran blamed Israel.

An airstrike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus last Monday killed senior IRGC General Mohammad Reza Zahedi, Iran's top adviser in charge of operations in Syria and Lebanon, as well as his deputy and several other corps officers.

Iran informed the US that it would refrain from responding to the airstrike in which senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commanders were killed in Damascus if a ceasefire in Gaza is reached, Jadeh Iran reported on Sunday.

The news outlet cited an anonymous Arab diplomatic source, saying the source spoke to the news outlet two days ago. The source added that "If America succeeds in containing the situation, it will be a great success for the Biden administration and we can build on that."

The report comes as negotiations for a ceasefire and hostage release deal resume between Israel and Hamas in Cairo and as Israel continues preparations for a possible response to the Damascus airstrike that Syria and Iran blamed on Israel.

Israel Scales Back Troop Presence in Gaza
The Israeli military said it withdrew a division of ground troops from southern Gaza on Sunday, raising questions about its plans as the war reached the six-month mark.

Israel has significantly reduced the number of troops it has on the ground in Gaza over the past several months. Only a fraction of the soldiers that it had deployed in the territory earlier in the war remain.

The army said that the 98th Division had left Khan Younis in southern Gaza in order "to recuperate and prepare for future operations." Israeli news media reported that the withdrawal of the 98th meant there were no Israeli troops actively maneuvering in southern Gaza.
It was unclear what the latest drawdown of forces meant for the timing of an Israeli ground offensive in Rafah, Gaza's southernmost city, where more than a million people have sought refuge.
