Iran accuses US, Zionist regime of provoking Lebanon crisis
Source: AFP, 09-05-2008
Iran on Friday accused the United States and 'Israel' of fueling the deadly fighting in Lebanon between Hizbullah and the ruling majority.
"Adventurous efforts and interventions by the United States and the Zionist regime are the main cause of the continuous chaotic situation in Lebanon," Foreign Ministry Spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini said.
"Unfortunately, part of the political plot which was predicted ... has been executed," said Hosseini, who was quoted by ISNA and Fars news agencies.
"We hope that those who have been responsible for creating this situation exert the effort needed to restore stability and calm to Lebanon," he added, without elaborating.
National Lebanese Opposition supporters seized control of West Beirut on Friday after a third day of battles with militants loyal to the Western-backed government that has killed at least 11 people, Lebanese security official have said.
Hosseini said Iran will pursue "tireless efforts ... to help different political groups reach an understanding."
