‘Israel seeking to create tensions in Mideast’

A senior Iranian official says the Israeli regime seeks to create crisis and tensions in the Middle East in a bid to catalyze partition of regional countries.

Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, the Iranian parliament speaker's special advisor on international affairs, made the comment during a meeting with Lebanese Ambassador to Tehran Fadi Haj Ali on Wednesday.

The Iranian official pointed to Riyadh’s “unconstructive” behavior in the region and ambiguities surrounding Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri’s resignation, saying the latest developments in Lebanon have "increased political unity" and neutralized plots by Lebanon’s enemies.  

In a shock announcement from the Saudi capital of Riyadh on November 4, Hariri resigned as Lebanon’s prime minister, accusing Iran and the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement of meddling in the Arab countries' affairs; an allegation the two have rejected.

The Lebanese prime minister announced his resignation while on a visit to Saudi Arabia.
