Syria affirms the Israeli aggression on Aleppo Airport comes within the framework of Western escalation and support for terrorism
On August 28th, Syria affirmed that the Israeli aggression on Aleppo International Airport comes within the framework of the American and Western escalation, their continued support for terrorism and their attempts to exacerbate the impacts of the economic sanctions on the Syrian people.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said in a statement on Monday: “The Israeli occupation entity continues its flagrant violations of the Charter of the United Nations, its disrespect for international law and international humanitarian law, and its brutal policy of striking Syria’ vital civilian infrastructure.”
The ministry added: “It is not the first time that the Israeli enemy attacks civilian targets and facilities, such as the international airports of Damascus and Aleppo, the commercial port of Latakia, and scientific and cultural centers.”
The ministry affirmed that the main goal of the successive attacks by the Israeli military and political leaders on Syria is to escape forward from the worsening crises inside Israel, and they come within the framework of the American and Western escalation against Syria, their support for terrorism and their attempts to exacerbate the impacts of the economic sanctions on all Syrians accross country.
The ministry stated that the Israeli occupation authorities confirm, through their aggressive policies and their targeting of these Syrian civilian facilities, that they are an essential part of the policies to destabilize regional and international stability, and that they depend in their criminal actions on the impunity provided to them by their primary sponsor, namely the United States of America and other Western countries that support and cover Israel’s crimes.
The ministry concluded by saying: “Syria condemns this cowardly Israeli terrorist attack, and once again warns (Israel) against continuing to commit these attacks, and renews its call on the Security Council to assume its responsibilities, under the Charter and the resolutions of international legitimacy, to hold (Israel) accountable for these crimes and bring the perpetrators into justice.”
