TEHRAN, June 18 (RIA Novosti) – Iran has no plans to send troops to aid Syrian President Bashar Assad's forces in the ongoing civil war there, an Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman said on Tuesday, rejecting media reports claiming Tehran was set to intervene directly in the fighting.
“We categorically deny this information,” Seyed Abbas Araqchi said, adding Tehran has never and would never send its troops to Damascus. Syria’s government forces have all the necessary means to fight against “terrorists acting in Syria,” and “Iran has no need to provide military aid to Syria’s authorities,” he said.

Kampftruppen werden also vorerst wohl nicht entsendet, was einen Showdown zwischen US Truppen und iranischen Truppen dort unwahrscheinlicher macht. Wahrscsheinlich ist aber, dass zumindest Militärberater im Land waren und vermutlich noch sind.

Mukhtar Army claims attack on Camp Liberty in Iraq
The Iraq-based militant group known as the Mukhtar Army has claimed responsibility for a recent rocket attack on Camp Liberty in the Iraqi capital that killed two members of the terrorist Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO).
Leader of the Mukhtar Army Wathiq al-Battat said on Monday that a total of 18 rockets were fired at the camp, vowing that his group would continue to attack the MKO members until they leave Iraq.
On June 15, Iraqi police sources reported that at least two MKO members were killed and more than 17 wounded after a number of mortars hit inside and near Camp Liberty in western Baghdad.
Battat further said, “We are giving them a 10-day deadline to leave; otherwise they will be attacked again.”
