Syria strongly condemned the ongoing Israeli crimes in the region, the latest of which was the aggression on the southern suburb of Beirut, along with the American and Western military and political support for these attacks, noting that the Zionist entity confirms with these crimes its brutality and blatant disregard of international legitimacy.

‘The racist Zionist entity is still committing its massacres in several parts of the region, especially in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank and Lebanon, and the world witnessed today a Zionist aggression on the southern suburb of Beirut, which resulted in the martyrdom of many and the wounding of other innocent civilians, not to mention the destruction it inflicted on the infrastructure there.’ the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said in a statement.

These attacks come after the horrific crime committed by the racist Zionist entity on the Lebanese civil communications system, which constituted another patent offense leaving thousands of civilians between
wounded and martyred.

The ministry went on to say ‘The Zionist entity demonstrates by committing these crimes its brutality and blatant departure from humanity and international legitimacy, as these crimes are considered war crimes and crimes against humanity, as if the Zionists were not satisfied with destroying the Gaza Strip and killing nearly 42 thousand people, most of them were women, children, school students and the elderly.’

Syria salutes the steadfast of brothers in Lebanon and trusts in their ability to confront these cowardly attacks and affirms its support for them against the Zionist aggressor, the statement added.

‘Syria denounce these crimes and warns that their continuation poses a threat to the region and the world, and strongly condemns the military and political support provided by the United States of America and Western countries for these attacks’.

Syria offers its sincere condolences to the families of the victims and wishes the wounded a speedy recovery, the statement concluded.
