Iran: Military Advisory Mission in Syria to Continue, Hezbollah Secured Lebanon

Iran and Russia will continue their mission as military advisory for Syria to help fight with terrorism

Iran and Russia will continue their mission as military advisory for Syria to help fight with terrorism, secretary of the Supreme National Security Council said.

ShamkhaniAli Shamkhani described Russian forces’ recent move to leave Syria a preplanned action based on due coordination. Fight with terrorism has not halted but still continues, he said.

Syrian army, with the help of military advisory by Iran and Russia, continues advancing towards the regions where terrorist groups threaten security of both people and region, he stressed.

Any plan which aims to ignore the role of the Syrian nation to decide for their fate is doomed to failure, he added.

At the outset, efforts to weaken the Syrian system have been made by the US and Israel in order to make the resistance in the region less powerful, he said adding certain regional countries unfortunately followed such American-Israeli plot.

On the issue of Hezbollah, Shamkhani condemned the decision made by Arab League and Persian Gulf Cooperation Council to label Lebanon's Hezbollah as ‘terrorist group’.

He further appreciated some countries which were vigilant against such decision and did not accept it.

Hezbollah has played leading role in defeating the terrorist groups in Syria as well as ensuring the security in Lebanon, he added.
