His comments come in response to the news of possible Iranian reprisals following the Israeli strike in Damascus that killed several pasdaran leaders.

“The level of alert on Israeli targets in Italy has been maximum for some time, independently of the latest events,” Pisani said on the sidelines of a conference at public broadcaster Rai.

“There are, then, contingent measures that are adopted on the basis of information activity.

“For example, in the past, in a particular period, the Israeli embassy in Italy was actually closed.”
