Syria writes to UN over repeated Israeli attacks, calls for ‘decisive’ action
Tehran (KNA) - Syria’s Foreign Ministry has urged the United Nations to take the necessary measures to stop Israel’s repeated acts of military aggression on the Arab country after four people lost their lives in the latest such airstrikes.
Israeli warplanes fired missiles at areas in the capital, Damascus, and its countryside as well as the province of Homs at 12.35 a.m. local time on Monday from Lebanese airspace, leaving four people, including a baby, dead and injuring 21 others, most of them women and children, the ministry said.
In two identical letters to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and the head of the UN Security Council (UNSC), the ministry slammed the air raids as a "flagrant violation" of UNSC Resolution 350 of 1974 on the disengagement of forces between the two sides.
It noted that the attacks were aimed at prolonging the crisis in the country.
