The Qatari newspaper Al Watan on Sunday quoted diplomatic sources in Damascus as saying that Iran has marked 600 targets in Israel for missile strikes in case it is attacked.

The report said the targets are within reach of Iranian missiles and would be completely destroyed if Israel should attack Iran or participate in an American attack on the country.

Iran's warning refers to talk in Israel and the United States of a possible military strike to prevent the Islamic republic from attaining nuclear capability.

Various channels delivered the Iranian message, which also warns against an attack on Syria.

The sources, which were described as both "international" and Arab, told Al Watan they do not expect a war to break out between Israel and Syria this summer...
