Amman: Several Arab countries condemned on Wednesday Israeli airstrikes in Syria as a 'blatant violation' of international law and the country's sovereignty. In a statement, the Jordanian Foreign Ministry said the Israeli strikes were 'a blatant violation of international law, an egregious breach of Syria's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and a dangerous escalation that will only fuel regional tensions and conflict."

According to Anadolu Agency, the Jordanian ministry reiterated its support for Syria and called on the international community 'to fulfill its legal and moral responsibilities toward compelling Israel to cease its unlawful and provocative attacks on Syria and end its occupation of Syrian territory."

The Omani Foreign Ministry echoed this sentiment, describing the Israeli attacks as "another violation of the Syrian territorial sovereignty." It urged the international community to "intervene immediately to deter Israel from such actions and put an end to its disregard for international law, which is pushing the region towards further chaos and regional conflict."

Egypt's Foreign Ministry also weighed in, denouncing the airstrikes as "a dangerous escalation and a blatant violation of Syria's sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity." The ministry characterized the strikes as "a continuation of Israel's policy of imposing a fait accompli," highlighting Tel Aviv's insistence on fueling tensions in the region.

Similarly, the Kuwaiti Foreign Ministry condemned the Israeli attacks as "a flagrant breach of international law and resolutions of the international legitimacy and the UN Charter." It called on the UN Security Council to intervene to halt the Israeli grave violations "that threaten the security and stability of Syria and the whole region."

The airstrikes in Daraa in southern Syria on Monday resulted in at least four deaths and injuries to 18 others, including four children. Following the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in December, Israel expanded its occupation of the Syrian Golan Heights by seizing the demilitarized buffer zone, violating a 1974 disengagement agreement with Syria.

Israel has launched hundreds of airstrikes targeting military sites across Syria, including fighter jets, missile systems, and air defense installations. Assad, Syria's leader for nearly 25 years, fled to Russia after anti-regime groups took control of Damascus on Dec. 8, ending the Baath Party regime that had been in power since 1963. Ahmed al-Sharaa, who led anti-regime forces to oust Assad, was declared president for a transitional period in late January.
