Tehran: The Iranian Foreign Ministry has slammed the US for its "interventionist" stance towards Syria.

The US "hostile" policies against the countries of the region is nothing new, Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qasemi said on Wednesday, warning the US government against any "foolish" action on Syria, Xinhua news agency reported.

"Should America insist on such policies, the nations of the region will react and show that they won't accept foreign presence in their region," Qasemi was quoted as saying by Tehran Times.

US Ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley, said on Monday that Washington was ready to unilaterally "act" against Syria, just as it did last year when it bombed a Syrian government air base.

Her remarks followed the alleged use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government against its people.

Unlike the US-led coalition, Iran is present in Syria upon the official request of Damascus to help the country fight terrorism, said Qasemi.

"We hope peace returns to Syria through diplomacy," he said.

Chennai, Nov 23: Music composer AR Rahman on Saturday issued a warning to individuals speculating about his separation from his wife, Saira Banu.

Taking to social media on Saturday, the 57-year-old musician shared a three-page legal notice addressing those spreading defamatory and "objectionable" content targeting him and his family.

"Notice to all slanderers from ARR's Legal Team," Rahman wrote on X.

It comes days after Rahman and Saira Banu announced that they are ending their marriage of 29 years.

The notice provides a 24-hour window for the removal of such content, stating that failure to comply could result in legal consequences under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.

"My client informs the hatemongers and sharers of abusive contents to remove the objectionable content within the next one hour and a maximum time duration of 24 hours," read the notice.

Rahman’s legal team said the actions of these individuals not only tarnish his reputation but also cause distress to his family.

Rahman and Banu tied the knot in 1995 and share three children-- daughters Khatija, Raheema, and son Ameen.
