- TEHRAN -- Iran warned Israel
Sunday of "unimaginable losses" if it attacks Syria and vowed
that it was standing by the Syrian people.
-
- "We hope the Zionist regime does not make the mistake
of attacking Syria, because extending the front would definitely make the
regime face unimaginable losses," foreign ministry spokesman Hamid
Reza Asefi told reporters.
-
- "We have offered and will offer Syria and Lebanon
spiritual and humanitarian support," Asefi said, reiterating Iran's
denial that it is providing military and financial assistance to the Hezbollah
movement.
-
- "We have no Guards there. It is not true that we
have sent missiles. Hezbollah is capable enough. The Zionist regime is
under pressure," Asefi said, repeating Iran's denial of any connection
to the attack.
