His Excellency Mr Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi, Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), expressed his strong condemnation and denunciation of the aggression by the Israeli occupation forces against the village of Kuwaya, west of Daraa in the sisterly Arab Republic of Syria, which resulted in a number of casualties and injuries.
His Excellency stated that this aggression by the Israeli occupation forces continues their aggressive policy of undermining security and stability in the region, referring to the statement issued by the Ministerial Council of the GCC in its 163rd session, which emphasised the importance of respecting the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of the sisterly Arab Republic of Syria, and that the security and stability of Syria are essential pillars for the stability of the region's security, as well as for maintaining regional and international peace and security.
Moreover, he stressed the need for the international community to fulfill its responsibilities to stop these repeated Israeli attacks on Syrian territory and called for the withdrawal from all occupied Syrian lands.
