The Iranian Armed Forces' Chief of Staff, General Mohammad Bagheri, held separate phone calls with his Russian, Iraqi, and Syrian counterparts.

During these discussions, Bagheri emphasized that the attacks by terrorist groups in Syria pose a serious threat to the region.

He further stated that the timing of the attack, coinciding with the fragile ceasefire in Lebanon, suggests an US-Israeli conspiracy aimed at weakening the Axis of Resistance. 

The Iranian Chief of Staff urged Syria's neighboring countries to "take the necessary measures to prevent the terrorists' advance."

Similarly, an advisor to Iran's Leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei, Ali Akbar Velayati, confirmed on Tuesday that "the events in Syria are part of an exposed plan, a scheme designed to distort truth and propagate falsehood."

In a press statement, Velayati emphasized that "the United States, the Zionist entity, and all regional countries, whether Arab or non-Arab, must realize that Iran will steadfastly support the Syrian state until the end."

He also warned US President-elect Donald Trump, saying that "global conditions are now far more challenging than during his previous presidency," and that independent nations "will not succumb to his threats or intimidation."

Addressing the Resistance's victory in Lebanon over the Israeli occupation, Velayati highlighted that the Resistance "has provided Palestinians with unprecedented and unparalleled support in the history of Islamic unity."

On Monday, Brigadier General Mohammad Ali Naeini, the spokesperson for Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), confirmed that "the Syrian army and the Resistance Front will respond forcefully to the new Zionist plot against Syria."

In his statement, Naeini emphasized that "the Resistance Axis will not retreat from its stance and will continue to stand firm against its enemies." He added that "the goal of the terrorists in Syria is to open a new front and weaken one of the key pillars of the resistance axis."
