Iranian foreign minister arrives in Damascus for talks with Syrian officials

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has arrived in Damascus to discuss regional developments and bilateral relations with Syrian officials, the Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson says.

Yesterday, Araghchi visited Lebanon for the first time since the leader of Tehran-backed Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, was killed in a Beirut airstrike alongside a high-ranking Iranian commander.

I guess there aren't many leaders in Lebanon surviving to talk with, so Iran has to go to plan B over in Syria.
