Iranian President Blames Foreign Supporters for Deadly Drone Attack on Syrian Military Academy
In a tragic incident that unfolded on Thursday, a deadly drone attack targeted a military academy in Syria’s Homs province. The attack, which occurred after a graduation ceremony for Syrian officers, claimed the lives of 89 people and left 277 others wounded, according to the Syrian Health Ministry. Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi has expressed his condolences to the Syrian government, Army, and people while pointing fingers at foreign supporters of terrorist groups for this appalling act.
President Raisi underscored that the responsibility for this heinous attack lies with those backing terrorist organizations, including the occupiers of Syrian lands. He accused them of hampering the exercise of national sovereignty over the entirety of Syria and impeding effective counterterrorism efforts. Raisi labeled the attack a criminal act and stressed that it is a grim reminder of the persistence of those opposing regional security, stability, and development.
Over the years, the oppressed Syrian populace has borne the brunt of these terrorist and brutal tactics employed by those who seek to undermine stability in the region. This recent incident further highlights the grave challenges faced by the Syrian people, who have long been victims of such attacks.
It is crucial to investigate and determine the perpetrators behind this devastating drone attack. The international community must unite in condemning such acts and supporting Syria’s fight against terrorism. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the urgency to enhance regional cooperation and collective efforts to combat terrorism effectively.
As the Syrian people mourn the loss of their compatriots and grapple with the aftermath of this horrific attack, it is important to recognize the resilience and determination displayed by the nation. Syria has endured immense hardships, and yet it remains steadfast in its commitment to stability and security.
The world should stand in solidarity with Syria as it continues its struggle against terrorism. Only through joint efforts, rooted in international cooperation and unwavering determination, can we hope to eradicate the menace of terrorism from our societies. The responsibility lies not just with the Syrian government but with the global community at large to ensure a safe and prosperous future for the Syrian people and the entire region.
