Member of Iran's Expediency Discernment Council and former IRGC Commander, Mohsen Rezaei, warned on Tuesday that "terrorists are preparing to launch attacks on Iraq."

He stated that 11,000 ISIS militants have been trained at a US military camp in northern Syria, raising concerns that they may target Iraqi cities such as Mosul or Tikrit in the coming months.

In related comments, Rezaei reported that "Israel" had struck 250 military sites and infrastructure targets in Syria within the past 24 hours, while accusing the US and militants of destroying all military sites in the country.

He further suggested that the recent developments in Lebanon, Syria, and potentially Iraq reflect the enemies' growing fear of the region's independence and their efforts to weaken its populations.

Iran denounces Israeli aggression on. Syria

In a related context, the spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry, Esmaeil Baghaei, said on Monday that Tehran denounces the Israeli aggression and its expanded occupation of the Golan. He underlined that the assault was a blatant violation of international law. 

The spokesperson also criticized "the silence of Western countries and supporters of the Zionist entity regarding these attacks."

Tehran called on the international community to take "decisive and immediate measures to stop the Israeli attacks on Syria and hold it accountable for violating international law."

In parallel with its occupation of Mount Hermon and the continuation of completing control over the buffer zone in Syria and other nearby points, Israeli warplanes continue to launch attacks on Syria. 

Israeli media reported that the Israeli Air Force attacked more than 150 military targets in Syria, as part of efforts to destroy the Syrian military capabilities. Monday's attacks marked the most violent raids on Syria since the October 1973 war, according to Israeli media outlets.
