INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
TEHRAN Irans Special Envoy for Syrian Affairs, Mohammad Reza Raouf Sheybani, has actually condemned escalating violence in Syrias seaside
areas, labeling the atrocities versus civilians as stunning and calling for international accountability.In a series of posts on his
official X account on Tuesday, Sheybani highlighted Irans unwavering support for Syrias sovereignty while urging definitive action versus
wrongdoers of violence
The strength and massive scale of atrocities versus innocent civilians in Syrias coastal provinces are deeply disconcerting, Sheybani
composed, referencing current massacres recorded in areas like Latakia and Tartus.We extend our heartfelt compassions to the victims
families and pray for their strength in the middle of this tragedy
The envoy straight linked the violence to broader local destabilization, worrying that any act of violence targeting Syrias minority
neighborhoods is entirely guilty, and firmly insisting that those accountable need to face justice.He echoed Irans place that Syrias interim
government must focus on major and effective measures to stop bloodshed and prosecute orchestrators of the violence, aligning with global
expectations for accountability
Sheybani repeated Irans commitment to Syrias territorial stability, alerting that extended instability would push the Zionist routine and
extremist groups, which were reportedly involved in massacres in Alawite-majority areas.Chaos in Syria only serves terrorists and threatens
local peace, he noted, alluding to the dissemination of graphic videos revealing executions and arson attacks in the Arab countrys seaside
regions.Recent clashes between Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS)-lined up forces and opposition groups have left over 1,000 civilians dead,
according to the so-called Syrian Human Rights Observatory.Local reports describe militants disposing of bodies in remote areas to hide
evidence, while eyewitnesses appeal for global intervention.They movie their crimes and commemorate themwe need a UN-backed examination,
said one survivor, highlighting the mental toll of the dispute.
