Iran, Qatar Urge Action To Halt Israeli Attacks On Syria

(MENAFN- Nam News Network) TEHRAN, Dec 13 (NNN-IRNA) – Iran and Qatar called yesterday, for urgent efforts to end Israel's attacks on Syria's infrastructure, and its ongoing occupation of the Arab state.

Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani discussed the latest developments in Syria, stressing the need for continued bilateral and multilateral consultations, to help stabilie Syria and form an inclusive political system with the participation of the Syrian people, according to a statement from the Iranian Foreign Ministry.

Since the collapse of Bashar al-Assad's government, Israel has significantly increased airstrikes across Syria, along with ground operations targeting critical military infrastructure. The Israeli military has also crossed into the demilitarised buffer zone, established under the 1974 ceasefire agreement between Israel and Syria, taking control of border areas.

Meanwhile, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) condemned“U.S. and Israeli attacks” on Syria's infrastructure, calling them a continuation of“aggressions” and violations of Syria's sovereignty.

The IRGC, in a statement on its official news outlet, Sepah News, accused the United States and Israel of exploiting the current instability, to target Syria's vital centers and interfere in the country's internal affairs.– NNN-IRNA
