RIYADH: Saudi Arabia has condemned on Saturday Israel’s strikes targeting military installations in southern Syria.

“The Kingdom reiterates its firm rejection of this blatant aggression and Israel’s violation of the 1974 Disengagement Agreement,” the Saudi foreign ministry said in a statement, and called on the international community to intervene and end “Israel’s violations of international laws and norms.”

“The Kingdom affirms its solidarity with the Syrian Arab Republic and its support for all measures that preserve its sovereignty, maintain its territorial integrity and unity, and achieve security and stability for it and its brotherly people,” the statement said.

Gulf and Arab countries including Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, Qatar and Turkiye have also issued statements condemning the attacks.

The attack “constitutes a flagrant and repeated violation of Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and a blatant breach of international law and the principles of the UN Charter, which guarantee the sovereignty and territorial integrity of states,” the Egyptian foreign ministry said in a statement.
