FNA - Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani rejected Israeli media claims that the regime has launched missiles strikes on Iran's military positions in Syria.

"Israel's remarks are extravagant and this (attack) is not related to the Iranian forces and they (the Israelis) can have no access in this regard," Larijani told reporters in a press conference in Russia on the sidelines of an international conference in Russia dubbed 'Parliamentary Members vs.Drugs' on Monday.


"But Israel's behavior is an instance of militarism in Syria and we condemn it; some countries in the region, unfortunately, show an adventurist attitude but they will not succeed," he added.


Larijani blasted Israel's aggressive behavior towards Syria, and said the Russians have several times warned them against such behavior.


Israeli media claimed late last week that Israel has fired missiles at a military base Iran has been building near the Syrian city of ??al-Qiswa, Southwest of Damascus.


Some media outlets also reported that Israeli warplanes targeted an ammunition bunker belonging to the Syrian Army. But other media outlets, widely quoted in Hebrew media on Saturday evening, claimed that the target was a military base that Iran is building in the area, about 50 kilometers (31 miles) from the Israeli border, and that loud explosions were heard after the attack.


The reports added that Israel fired five missiles. Syrian state media said its air defenses intercepted at least two Israeli missiles fired at a government military position in Damascus province, but that the attack still caused damage.
