Hezbollah resistance movement has categorically dismissed allegations of involvement in the recent deadly clashes in Syria, describing the accusations as “baseless.”
In a statement released on Saturday, Hezbollah’s Media Relations Office urged media outlets to exercise caution in reporting news and avoid misinformation campaigns that serve foreign political agendas, Press TV reported.
“Some parties persist in involving Hezbollah’s name in the events taking place in Syria and accusing it of being a party to the ongoing conflict there,” it said.
“Hezbollah clearly and categorically denies these baseless allegations.”
The statement came two days after the Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) militants of the interim ruling regime in Syria and armed opposition groups engaged in deadly confrontations.
The clashes took place in the country’s northwestern coastal region, which is predominantly inhabited by the Alawite minority sect. Former Syrian President Bashar Assad also comes from the Alawite community.
