Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaybani:
If your report talks about tens of thousands of soldiers, how could something of this magnitude be kept secret?
If there was a military support position of the Syrian Arab Republic for any country in the region, whether Saudi Arabia or another country, it would certainly be an honorable position for us, and it would be officially announced.
Our position is clear and firm. We support Arab and Islamic countries in dealing with the challenges and threats they face from militias and attacks.
