Iran Ready to Send Medical Aids to Victims of Terrorist Attacks in Syria
A senior Iranian diplomat blasted certain regional and western states for supplying weapons to the rebel groups fighting Syrian people, and announced Tehran’s readiness to send further humanitarian and medical aid to the victims of terrorist attacks in the Muslim country.
Iranian Ambassador to Beirut Qazanfar Roknabadi pointed to the crimes against humanity committed by the armed terrorist groups in the region, particularly in Syria, and said the Iranian Red Crescent Society and other humanitarian institutions in the country are ready to send medical help to those in need.
He said certain states are fanning the flames of crisis and bloodshed in Syria by dispatching military forces to the country and providing terrorists with arms and financial aid.
These countries should understand that only a political solution coupled with respect for the public will and demands can settle the crisis in Syria, the Iranian envoy stated.
During their talks in the Qatari capital, Doha, on June 22, top diplomats from Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the UAE and the US agreed to supply weaponry to the terrorists in Syria.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country.
In October 2011, calm was eventually restored in the Arab state after President Assad started a reform initiative in the country, but Israel, the US and its Arab allies are seeking hard to bring the country into chaos through any possible means. Tel Aviv, Washington and some Arab capitals have been staging various plots in the hope of stirring unrests in Syria once again.
The US and its western and regional allies have long sought to topple Bashar al-Assad and his ruling system. Media reports said that the Syrian rebels and terrorist groups have received significantly more and better weapons in recent weeks, a crime paid for by the Persian Gulf Arab states and coordinated by the United States.
The US daily, Washington Post, reported in May 2012 that the Syrian rebels and terrorist groups battling the President Bashar al-Assad’s government have received significantly more and better weapons in recent weeks, a crime paid for by the Persian Gulf Arab states and coordinated by the United States.
The newspaper, quoting opposition activists and US and foreign officials, reported that Obama administration officials emphasized the administration has expanded contacts with opposition military forces to provide the Persian Gulf nations with assessments of rebel credibility and command-and-control infrastructure.
Opposition activists who several months ago said the rebels were running out of ammunition said in May 2012 that the flow of weapons – most bought on the black market in neighboring countries or from elements of the Syrian military in the past – has significantly increased after a decision by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Persian Gulf states to provide millions of dollars in funding each month.
