Riyadh, MINA – The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and the Muslim World League (MWL) strongly condemned Israel’s latest airstrikes on Syrian territory.
In a statement issued shortly after the attack on Wednesday, GCC Secretary General Jassem Albudaiwi described the Israeli strikes as a blatant violation of Syria’s sovereignty and a breach of international law and norms.
Albudaiwi warned that such aggression poses a serious threat to regional stability and represents an irresponsible escalation that disregards international efforts to secure peace in Syria and the broader region.
He called on the international community to assume its responsibility by stopping these violations, holding the perpetrators accountable, and protecting the Syrian people in accordance with the UN Charter and international law.
