Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has denounced recent rebel attacks in Syria as “a US-Zionist plan following the Zionist regime’s defeat in Lebanon and Palestine,” Iran’s state media reports.
In a phone call with his Syrian counterpart, Araghchi reiterated Iran’s support to the Syrian government, the media says.
Rebel groups in Syria launched an offensive on areas controlled by government forces earlier this week, on the same day that a ceasefire began between Syria’s ally Hezbollah and Israel.
The rebel offensive is the largest since March 2020 when Russia, which backs Syrian President Bashar Assad, and Turkey, which supports the rebels, agreed to a ceasefire that ended years of fighting that uprooted millions of Syrians opposed to Assad’s rule.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
