TEHRAN,(Basirat) – Iranian Deputy FM Amir-Abdollahian condemned the act of Saudi-led council of six Arab countries of the Persian Gulf in labeling Hezbollah as a terrorist party.

His remarks came after the Wednesday statement of the Saudi-dominated council of the Arab states of the Persian Gulf which declared implementing the terrorist designation for Lebanese resistant group Hezbollah.
The Iranian diplomat described the decision in favor of Israeli regime and against the good of the Lebanese and the whole region.
"Willingly or unwillingly, those who label Hezbollah as terrorist target the unity and security of Lebanon," reiterated Amir-Abdollahian.
