Israel’s latest deadly airstrike on the occupied Golan Heights in Syria has
been undoubtedly carried out in continuation of cooperation with Takfiri
terrorists, a senior Iranian official says.

In a Monday meeting with Iraqi Interior Minister Mohammed Salem al-Ghabban
in Tehran, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Ali
Shamkhani condemned the Israeli regime’s terrorist move in violating the
Syrian government’s sovereignty and killing a number of members of the
Lebanese resistance movement, Hezbollah, in the city of Quneitra.

“The move completes the performance of Tel Aviv’s rulers to use terrorism
with the purpose of creating a buffer zone in the regime’s fake borders,”
Shamkhani said.

Based on previous experience, Hezbollah would give a severe and
revolutionary response to the Israeli regime’s measures in due time and
place, he added.

A military helicopter gunship operated by the Israeli army fired two
missiles into Amal Farms in the strategic southwestern city of Quneitra,
situated some 60 kilometers (37 miles) south of the capital, Damascus, on
Sunday. Two remote-controlled reconnaissance drones buzzed overhead as the
airborne assault took place.

Six Hezbollah fighters and the general of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards
Corps, Mohammad Ali Allahdadi, were killed in the Israeli airstrike.

Iraq army gains

Shamkhani further commended victories of the Iraqi army and volunteer forces
in the fight against Takfiri terrorists.

He said despite covert intelligence, military and financial support by
certain regional and extra-regional countries for the Takfiri militants,
stability and peace is restoring to Iraq at a rapid pace.

Soldiers of the Iraqi army have been engaged in heavy fighting with the
militants on different fronts and have so far been able to push back
militants in several areas.

The interior minister, for his part, said many Iraqi provinces currently
have very appropriate security situation.

Ghabban called for the expansion of cooperation with Iran given its great
capabilities in various security sectors.
