Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast says transregional forces are pushing Syria toward insecurity and instability because Damascus is at the forefront of the resistance movement against Israel.

“There are hands at work to create instability and insecurity in Syria with the aim of harming the Islamic resistance front in the region and creating a safe haven for the Zionist regime [of Israel],” Mehmanparast said in an interview with Fars News Agency on Friday.

He added that regional countries must, therefore, be sensitive about the security and stability of the Middle East and thwart any plots for foreign interference through cooperation and coordination.

“We must not allow an atmosphere to be created in which transregional countries [will be able to] disrupt the peace in the region with rash measures such as military interference,” Mehmanparast said.
