RNA - "The US has not been able to handle its war game in Aleppo in favor of the terrorists," Amir Abdollahian told reporters on Friday.

He reiterated that the Syrian army and nation will not allow the terrorists to remain in Syria.

He warned against the serious the risk of disintegration of the regional countries, and said that the ISIL is a protégé of the US and Israel to target the axis of Resistance, but not Israel.

In early August, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Ibrahim Rahimpour said that Iran is ready to cooperate and assist Russia's humanitarian operation in Syria's Aleppo.

Russia has been sending tons of humanitarian aid to Aleppo and helped open several humanitarian corridors for civilians to be able to flee the city and the fighting.

"Of course, we need to create conditions for normal life in Aleppo. All the residents of Aleppo and Syria are tired of this situation. We are ready to assist the Russian side in creating normal living conditions in Aleppo and Syria. We are ready to cooperate with the Russian side," Rahimpour said.

The deputy minister noted that the issue would be discussed at the upcoming meeting between Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in Baku. "There are no limits when it comes to discussions between the two leaders," he said.

Syria has been mired in civil war since 2011, with government forces loyal to President Bashar Assad fighting numerous opposition factions and extremist groups.
