Iran’s Embassy in Syria has dismissed claims that $42 million, allocated by Tehran for the Syrian and Lebanese people in the face of the Israeli aggressions, was stolen.
In a statement shared on its X account on Wednesday, the embassy clarified that no assets or equipment were present in its Damascus building at the time of the incident, contradicting media reports alleging $42 million in cash had been looted.
The embassy emphasized that all necessary measures were meticulously taken before the evacuation of the premises, ensuring the security of its belongings.
Foreign-backed militants, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, have ransacked the Iranian embassy in Damascus after the government of President Bashar al-Assad fell early Sunday.
Videos and photos circulated online Sunday showed the militants tearing down the poster that depicted martyred Iranian anti-terror commander General Qassem Soleimani and Hezbollah chief Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, at the diplomatic mission’s exterior.
They also broke the windows of the embassy and looted its offices.
