In response to developments over the past two days in Syria, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran issued a warning about the renewed activity of Takfiri-terrorist groups. Esmaeil Baqaei called for decisive and coordinated measures to prevent the expansion of the scourge of terrorism in the region.

Baqaei strongly condemned all forms and manifestations of terrorism, describing the recent movements of terrorist groups in Syria as part of the sinister scheme orchestrated by the terrorist Zionist regime and the United States to destabilize the West Asia region. He emphasized the necessity of vigilance and coordination among regional countries, particularly Syria's neighbors, to neutralize this dangerous conspiracy.

The Foreign Ministry spokesperson underlined that, based on existing agreements among the three guarantor states of the Astana Process (Iran, Turkey, and Russia), the outskirts of Aleppo and Idlib are designated as de-escalation zones. Baqaei stated that the attacks by terrorist groups on these areas constitute a blatant violation of the Astana agreements and place the positive achievements of this process in serious jeopardy.

He also reminded the international community of its shared responsibility to prevent and combat the ominous phenomenon of terrorism. Baqaei cautioned that any delay in countering terrorist movements in Syria would jeopardize all the gains made in the fight against terrorism in recent years, dragging the region into a new phase of insecurity and instability.

While honoring the memory of those who have sacrificed their lives over the past 14 years to defend the security and human dignity of the region's people against Takfiri terrorism, Baqaei offered his condolences and congratulations on the martyrdom of Iran's esteemed senior military advisor, Brigadier General Kiumars (Hashem) Pourhashemi, in combat with terrorist groups in the outskirts of Aleppo. He reiterated the Islamic Republic of Iran's continued support for the Syrian government and people in their resolute confrontation with terrorist groups and efforts to restore security and stability to the country.
