„Syrian media sources said that General Javad al-Ghafari, commander of the Revolutionary Guards and 16 IRGC-backed Shiite militias wants to kill all those who are still trapped in eastern Aleppo, which is hampering the completion of the operation aiming to evacuate the rest of the civilians and fighters.
The sources said that General Ghafari has been in conflict with the Russians since the beginning; since he didn’t want civilians and opposition fighters to evacuate the besieged neighborhoods. He hindered the Russian-Turkish agreement, where Iranian media had started to attack Russia in line with talks about this agreement. Iranian media hinted about a conflict of interest between the two sides in Syria.“ (Bericht auf Al Arabiya: „Iran in Aleppo: ‚Kill all those who are trapped‘“)
