Iran's Defense Minister Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh communicated to his Syrian counterpart on Sunday that the ongoing cooperation between the two countries is essential and will undoubtedly contribute to the defeat of the Israeli occupation regime.

During a phone call with the Syrian Minister of Defense Lieutenant General Ali Mahmoud Abbas, Nasirzadeh underscored Iran's unwavering support for Syria's security and its commitment to respecting its territorial integrity.

The Iranian defense minister emphasized that the agreements between the two countries, including those reached during the latter's visit to Tehran, must be fully implemented. He also asserted that bilateral cooperation will continue to expand at an accelerated pace.

On the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza, now nearing its one-year mark, the Iranian defense minister stated "Unfortunately, we do not see a proper reaction from the international community regarding the crimes of the Zionist regime and therefore the cooperation between the two countries should continue and this cooperation will definitely lead to the defeat of the regime."

He stated that Syria and Iran will intensify their efforts to further expand bilateral cooperation.

"We are with you and we both are on the same side," Abbas told his counterpart.

"The security of the two countries is intertwined because the brethren of the Resistance Axis seem to be on the same boat and are fighting alongside each other against the occupying regime, that commits many crimes against humanity in Gaza, Syria, and Yemen amid the inaction of international organizations that ignore the crimes committed by the Zionist regime."

"Without a doubt, cooperation will make us stronger against this bullying front," the Syrian defense minister added.

"I hope we will develop such cooperation and agreements, and in my opinion, we have no other choice and we must continue this path to deal with the forces of evil."
