Iranian FM to visit Jordan for talks on Syria


Iran's Foreign Minister Ali-Akbar Salehi will pay an official visit to Jordan to hold talks with the country's officials about the crisis in Syria, Press TV reported, quoting the ministry spokesman.

"Considering the importance of continuing consultations and making use of regional capacities to resolve the ongoing crisis in Syria through a political approach and national Syrian-Syrian talks, our foreign minister will soon head for the Jordanian capital as the head of a delegation," Ramin Mehmanparast said.

During his two-day visit to Amman, Salehi will pursue a new round of joint and constructive efforts by influential regional countries to settle the Syrian unrest given the prominent roles of Iran and Jordan in the region, Mehmanparast said, without elaborating on the time of Salehi's departure.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry meanwhile condemned the "Israeli military aggression against Syria," according to Press TV.

Earlier in the day, the Syrian state TV said Israel launched an airstrike on a military research center in a suburb of the Syrian capital before dawn, a day after an alleged Israeli attack on a convoy carrying missiles from Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon.
