Israel opposes Iran's presence in Syria

Iran should withdraw from Syria, Israeli government member Yoav Galant said.

Galant said they believe that Iran must retreat towards the Tigris River, which is far from Syria, and return to its natural boundaries.

He added that Iran has nothing to do in Syria, and that Israel will find a means to defend itself from this threat.

Israeli government member stressed that his country is against the establishment of an Iranian naval base in Syria, since this will threaten the security of Israel and the region.
