DIMASCUS, Nov. 30 (YPA) – The Kremlin said on Friday that it supports the Syrian government forces to restore order in the Aleppo region in northern Syria as soon as possible.

On the other hand, the Iranian Foreign Minister discussed with his Syrian counterpart the developments in the countryside of Aleppo and Idlib.

In the same context, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi discussed, during a phone call with his Syrian counterpart, Bassam al-Sabbagh, the developments in northern Syria after the recent attacks by the terrorist Hayat Tahrir al-Sham and the armed factions affiliated with the Turkish occupation.
