TEHRAN – Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qassemi said on Wednesday that the Iranian ambassadors to Oman and Syria have been appointed.

He said that the names of the new ambassadors will be announced in the future when the executive and diplomatic procedures are done.

Mohammad Reza Sheibani, the former ambassador of Iran to Syria, returned home in October after a five-year service in Damascus.

Sheibani bears with him the title of “The Defendant of the Shrine”.
