TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Intelligence Minister Seyed Mahmoud Alavi underlined that his ministry is vigilantly monitoring every move made by the enemies and is fully prepared to defuse and repel any type of threat to Iran and eradicate the terrorist groups.

"The intelligence ministry is fully ready for cooperation to uproot terrorism in the region," Alavi said in a meeting with Head of the Intelligence and Security Service of the Lebanese Public Security Organization General Abbas Ebrahim in Tehran on Tuesday.

The Iranian intelligence minister, meantime, condoled with the Lebanese government and nation on sad occasion of the recent terrorist attack in Beirut that resulted in the death of hundreds of civilians.

Alavi said that Israel is the sole party responsible for terrorist actions in the region.

General Ebrahim, for his part, said that the Takfiri terrorists and Israel are the two sides of the same coin and therefore campaign against both of them should be pursued simultaneously.

The top Lebanese security official, meantime, asked for sharing Iranian Intelligence Ministry's experiences in the field of campaign against Takfiri terrorism.

The two intelligence chiefs also discussed mutual cooperation to fight terrorism, and reiterated that all terrorist groups in the region are led and managed by Israel.

Last week, Alavi announced that Tehran has increased security measures after the recent attacks in France and Lebanon by the Takfiri terrorist groups.

"The intelligence ministry's priority is establishment of security in the country and confronting the Takfiri stream," Alavi said, addressing a forum in Tehran.

He referred to the recent terrorist attacks in Beirut and Paris, and said the Takfiri terrorists are the most important threat to the Islamic Republic.

"Of course, the recent blasts are a serious warning to us too and they should go under scrutiny by experts," Alavi said.

He also warned that the enemies are always after striking and influencing Iran, adding that the current volatile conditions increase the threat more than ever.

His remarks came after a series of blasts and shootings in Beirut and Paris earlier this month which killed nearly 200 civilians.

The ISIL terrorist group accepted the responsibility for the attacks.

Iranian officials strongly condemned the attacks and called for overall and serious fight against terrorism.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in a message to his French counterpart Fran�ois Hollande extended his condolences on the killing of people in a series of bombings and shootings in Paris, and reiterated the need for collective efforts to fight against terrorism.

"I, on behalf of the great Iranian nation, which itself has been one of the victims of the ominous phenomenon of terrorism, strongly condemn these anti-human crimes and extend my condolences to the bereaved nation and government of France," President Rouhani said in his message.

He expressed deep regret over the killing and wounding of a large number of innocent people in Paris, and said, "Undoubtedly, the world's most important message in such events is more serious will and determination to launch overall fight against the terrorist groups."

Also, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Brigadier General Massoud Jazzayeri warned Washington and its European allies not to replay the September 11 theatre to pressure and attack Muslims by misusing the Friday night's terrorist events in Paris.

Jazzayeri made the remarks after a series of bombings and shootings in the French capital left over 150 people dead and scores of others injured following which certain western media attempted to blame all Muslims for the attacks.

"The French people paid the price for their government's support for the ISIL and the Takfiri terrorism," he said.

Jazzayeri warned the US and its allies against misusing the Paris events to attack and pressure the Muslim states like what they did against Afghanistan and Iraq after the 9/11 attacks in 2001 and 2003, and said Iran had many times warned that certain European countries' support for the terrorists will backfire on their advocates one day.

He also referred to the Thursday terrorist attack in Beirut which killed over 40 people, and said, "The Paris and Beirut blasts are the two sides of the same coin and the international community expects the supporters of Takfiri terrorists, specially the US, France and other western governments, to give up their discriminatory approach and behavior and adopt a common and united position on these crimes."
