Several Arab nations condemn recent Israeli strike on Syria

Damascus, Mar 21 (Prensa Latina) Several Arab countries strongly condemned the recent Israeli strike on military facilities in southern Syria, stating that such actions undermine security and stability in the region, mass media informed in this capital on Saturday.

The sources stated that Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, and Kuwait issued official statements from their respective Foreign Ministries expressing their rejection of Friday’s incursions, following the Israeli army’s announcement of shelling of Syrian army weapons depots.

The Saudi Foreign Ministry condemned the attack as a flagrant violation of international law and the sovereignty of Syria, reiterating its condemnation of what it described as an act of aggression that also violates the 1974 Disengagement Agreement.

Egypt also denounced the action as a repeated violation of Syria’s territorial integrity and a breach of the United Nations Charter, while warning that continued such practices could escalate regional tensions.

Qatar considered the attacks a clear transgression of Syrian sovereignty and international law, noting that the lack of deterrent action contributes to the worsening crisis in the region.

Jordan, through its Foreign Ministry, also condemned the aggression and underscored the need to halt all attacks on Syrian territory, in accordance with international obligations and the 1974 Disengagement Agreement.

Kuwait also rejected the bombings, calling them a flagrant violation of Syrian sovereignty and relevant international resolutions, and urged the international community to take action to stop these actions.

The Syrian Foreign Ministry had denounced in a statement that the strike is part of an escalating policy by Israel, aimed at destabilizing regional security and interfering in the country’s internal affairs.

Israel has occupied most of the Syrian Golan Heights since 1967 and, according to Damascus, has expanded its presence into additional areas by taking advantage of the internal situation in Syria.
