An Iranian security official reiterated on Sunday that the Islamic republic will not give up its military advisory support for Iraq and Syria until the full elimination of terrorism, Press TV reported.

Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Shamkhani, made the remarks in a meeting with the visiting chairman of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq Ammar Hakim in Tehran on Sunday.

Shamkhani hailed the recent victories of the Iraqi forces against the militants of the Islamic State (IS), saying that the victories show "internal unity and domestic capacities serve as a successful and reliable experience in the process of fighting terrorism."

The Iraqi government can further take advantage of the local capacities in the liberation of the city of Mosul from the IS occupation, he said.

Iran "will keep up its advisory cooperation and assistance to the Iraqi and Syrian governments until the threat from terrorist groups in the region is completely eliminated," Shamkhani stressed.

For his part, Hakim briefed the latest developments in Iraq and hailed Iran's support for his country in its fight against the IS.

Since the eruption of civil war in Syria and Iraq, Iran has dispatched military advisers to those countries in the support of the governments.
