“The Islamic Republic of Iran will stand by the people of Aleppo like it has done in the past and we will offer all (our) existing capacities to help those injured in the earthquake this morning,” said Salman Navvab Nouri in an interview with the IRNA on Monday.
A major earthquake of magnitude 7.8 struck central Turkey and northwest Syria in the early hours of Monday, killing about 300 people and injuring hundreds more.
The quake, which was also felt in Cyprus and Lebanon, caused buildings across the region to collapse, triggering searches for survivors in the rubble.
