Iran and Syria's Foreign Ministers, Abbas Araghchi and Bassam al-Sabbagh, discussed via phone recent developments in Syria and the battle against terrorism.

Araghchi dubbed the resurrection of terrorist groups in Syria a US-Zionist plot following the regime's failure in Lebanon and Palestine.

He reaffirmed Iran's support for the Syrian government, people, and army in the battle against terrorism, highlighting the necessity of maintaining regional security and stability.

In a call with Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bouhabib on Thursday, Araghchi echoed the same statement.

On his end, the Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, confirmed on Friday that Iran and the Resistance will remain alongside Syria in the face of this new plot, writing on X that the return of the Takfiri terrorist groups is an "American-Israeli plan."

He stressed the need for "Syria's neighboring countries to take caution so as not to fall into the trap of the American-Israeli plan."

This comes after four students were killed and dozens were injured after terrorist groups launched a deadly assault on the university dormitory complex in Aleppo, northern Syria.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the dormitories were hit by intense shelling, with over 10 rockets striking four residential units, causing significant casualties among the student population.

Syrian army foils attack, launches counteroffensive in Idlib

The Syrian army successfully repelled the advance of the joint operations room of terrorists southeast of Idlib, as fierce clashes continue to rage on the western Aleppo front.

On Thursday, the Syrian army launched a counteroffensive to retake positions it had previously vacated in southeastern Idlib.

The army regained control of the village of Jobas and forced militants to retreat from the villages of Dadikh and Kafr Batekh in eastern Idlib, with the heaviest fighting concentrated around these areas. Syrian forces also conducted targeted rocket strikes to prevent militants from returning to these strategic locations.

The counteroffensive was accompanied by a sustained barrage of missile strikes on the headquarters of the joint operations room of militants, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which is supported by Turkish and Ukrainian intelligence. These strikes targeted areas west of Aleppo and extended as far as the supply lines in Jabal al-Zawiya, south of Idlib.

The Syrian Arab Army has begun countering the intense assault launched by armed militant groups in the Aleppo and Idlib countrysides since dawn on Wednesday, according to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent. Syrian forces have inflicted heavy losses on the militants, killing at least 400.

The correspondent reported that the Syrian Arab Army has launched a counteroffensive targeting positions seized by the armed groups in southeastern Idlib.

At least 400 terrorist militants linked to Jabhat al-Nusra fell casualty during their attack on SAA positions in the Aleppo and Idlib countrysides on November 27, according to Oleg Yegnasiyuk, Deputy Head of the Russian Reconciliation Center in Syria.

In a press conference, Yegnasiyuk confirmed that the terrorist groups suffered heavy losses in both personnel and equipment while attacking the SAA. He noted that the Syrian army is "fighting fiercely, supported by the Russian Air Force."

Additionally, 13 terrorist attacks were recorded against Syrian government forces (Syrian Army and allied units) in the Idlib "de-escalation zone," including 12 in Idlib province and one in Aleppo province.

It is worth noting that the Syrian Arab Army countered a terrorist insurgence in the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib, inflicting heavy losses on the adversaries' equipment and personnel, a statement by the Syrian Ministry of Defense announced.
