NCRI – The Iranian regime is sending aid to the Syrian regime to help it quell unrest, the Washington Post reported on Saturday.<\/p>\nNCRI – The Iranian regime is sending aid to the Syrian regime to help it quell unrest, the Washington Post reported on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The paper said U.S. officials say the Iranian regime is dispatching increasing numbers of trainers and advisers \u2014 including members of its elite Quds Force \u2014 into Syria to help crush anti-government demonstrations that are threatening to topple the Iranian regime\u2019s most important ally in the region.<\/p>\n

The aid includes not only weapons and riot gear but also sophisticated surveillance equipment that is helping Syrian authorities track down opponents through their Facebook and Twitter accounts, the sources told the Washington Post.<\/p>\n
\u201cIranian-assisted computer surveillance is believed to have led to the arrests of hundreds of Syrians seized from their homes in recent weeks,\u201d the Post said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe new assertions \u2014 provided by two U.S. officials and a diplomat from an allied nation, all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive intelligence \u2014 are clearly aimed at suggesting deepening involvement of Iranian military personnel in Syria\u2019s brutal crackdown against anti-Assad demonstrators.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Post added that in the account provided by the diplomat and the U.S. officials, the Iranian regime\u2019s military trainers were being brought to Damascus to instruct Syrians in techniques Iran used against uprisings in Iran in 2009.<\/p>\n
Officers from the Iranian regime\u2019s notorious Quds Force have played a key role in Syria\u2019s crackdown since at least mid-April, U.S. and allied officials told the Washington Post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
