He said on November 4, 2013: “Hundreds of battalions from Iran are present in Syria. Although you hear the news of the Syrian Army\u2019s victories through a Syrian commander, it is actually Iranian forces that are behind the scene. (When the US announced possible attacks against Syria) in the days when all embassies in Damascus were closed, Iran\u2019s official delegation, along with their families, were there in the scene which was encouraging for Bashar al-Assad.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
