RNA - The senior advisor made the remarks in response to the fake documents released on Al-Qaeda terrorist group.

"Al-Qaeda is rooted in Saudi Wahhabism and the current terrorist incidents can be traced back to the triangle of Tel Aviv, Riyadh, and Washington," Amir Abdollahian wrote in his Twitter account on Saturday.

He reiterated the fakeness of the US documents Al-Qaeda-Iran links, calling them as "baseless and unsubstantial".

In relevant remarks on Thursday, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif strongly blasted the recent claims by the US officials who falsely accused the Islamic Republic of financing Al-Qaeda terrorist group.

"A record low for the reach of petrodollars: CIA and FDD fake news w/selective Al-Qaeda documents regarding Iran can't whitewash role of the US allies in 9/11," Zarif wrote in his Twitter account.

While Iran has repeatedly adopted transparent stances against terrorist groups like ISIL, Taliban and Al-Qaeda, the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), in a bid to remove stain of disgrace from the US allies, has recently released documents claiming that Iran has proposed to support the terrorist group of al-Qaeda.

The documents are alleged to have been obtained during assassination of Osama bin Laden, founder of al-Qaeda terrorist group during operations in 2011.
