General Hossein Daghighi, an advisor to the Commander of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), issued a strong warning on Saturday, emphasizing that resistance networks in Syria are well-equipped to respond to any foreign intervention.
Daghighi's statements come in light of reports indicating that rebel fighters have entered Aleppo, Syria's second-largest city, for the first time since it was reclaimed by government forces in 2016.
"The adversary is unable to execute any significant actions, as the resistance networks have been meticulously organized," Daghighi asserted. He further cautioned, "Any attempts to interfere in Syria will lead to their decisive defeat, leaving an indelible mark on history."
The resurgence of conflict in Aleppo represents a notable shift in Syria's ongoing crisis.
The infiltration of rebel groups into government-controlled areas raises alarms regarding the stability of regions that have been regained by the Syrian regime, supported by Iran and its allies, including the IRGC and Hezbollah.
Daghighi's comments reflect Tehran's overarching strategy to safeguard its interests in Syria, where it has played a pivotal role in supporting President Bashar al-Assad's administration.
By highlighting the resilience of resistance networks, the IRGC advisor conveyed confidence in the capacity of pro-Iranian forces to thwart any external threats or insurgent advances.
The developments in Aleppo underscore the precarious nature of Syria's post-war landscape, with foreign entities and rebel groups competing for dominance in the region.
