Iran will maintain its support for the Syrian government, a commander said in comments published Tuesday.

“We will send advisers in all fields and offer all help at our disposal so the resistance front doesn’t break,” the ground forces commander of the elite Revolutionary Guards, General Mohammad Pakpour, told the Fars news agency.

“They are present there now and we will deploy more as long as there is a need for advisory support.”

Pakpour said that advisers from the Guards’ ground forces, including the Saberin Special Forces Unit, were working alongside those from the Guards’ Quds Force foreign operations arm.
