Iran Refutes Claim of Embassy’s Role in Anti-Israeli Attack by Hezbollah
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry dismissed the allegations made by the Zionist regime that Iran’s embassy in Beirut has been involved in a military operation by Hezbollah against Israel.
In comments on Wednesday night, Esmaeil Baqaei rejected a claim by the spokesperson of the aggressive Zionist regime's army that the embassy of Iran in Beirut was involved in a military operation by Lebanon's Hezbollah against the regime.
He described the allegation as unfounded, a lie and deception on part of the Israeli regime, the ministry’s website reported.
Baqaei referred to the continuation of the Israeli regime's aggression and crimes against regional countries over the past year and warned against any aggression on Iran's interests.
His remarks came after the Israeli army’s spokesman Daniel Hagari accused Iran of sending “suitcases of cash and gold" to the Iranian embassy in Beirut, alleging that the money goes "directly to Hezbollah”.
