Iran rejects claims of any involvement in Syria violence

Iran's foreign ministry on Monday rejected media reports accusing the country of involvement in the latest violence in Syria, which has left hundreds killed.

"This accusation is completely ridiculous and rejected, and we think that pointing the finger of accusation at Iran and Iran's friends is wrongly addressed, a deviant trend, and a hundred percent misleading," said foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei in a weekly press briefing.
