Iran aims to send missiles, drones, military advisers to Syria, senior official says
DUBAI - Iran aims to send missiles and drones to Syria and increase the number of its military advisers there to support President Bashar al-Assad in his battle against rebels, a senior Iranian official told Reuters on Friday.
Over the past week, anti-Assad rebels have made their swiftest battlefield gains since the civil war began 13 years ago, striking a devastating blow to Assad. "Iran and Syria are united in preventing rebels from advancing toward major cities. Syria has not yet requested ground forces from Iran," the senior official said, adding that "for now, the decision is for Syria and Russia to intensify airstrikes".The foreign ministers of Turkey, Iran, and Russia will meet in Doha on Saturday to discuss the rebel advance in Syria, a Turkish diplomatic source said on Friday.
