RIYADH — The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) strongly condemned Israel’s latest airstrikes on Syrian territory, reaffirming its firm support for Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and rejecting any foreign interference that could aggravate the suffering of the Syrian people.

In a statement issued Wednesday, GCC Secretary-General Jassem Albudaiwi described the Israeli attacks as a flagrant violation of Syria’s sovereignty and a breach of international law and norms.

He warned that such aggression poses a serious threat to regional stability and constitutes an irresponsible escalation that disregards international efforts to secure peace in Syria and the wider region.

Albudaiwi called on the international community to take responsibility for halting these violations, holding the perpetrators accountable, and protecting the Syrian people in accordance with the UN Charter and international law.

Separately, the Muslim World League (MWL) reiterated its solidarity with the Syrian government and people in confronting threats to their security, unity, and sovereignty.

In a statement from its General Secretariat, the MWL voiced support for Syria’s efforts to restore civil peace, uphold the rule of law, and protect all segments of its population.

The League also condemned Israel’s repeated violations of international law through its ongoing aggression on Syrian territory.

Wednesday’s Israeli air raids targeted the General Staff building in Damascus, causing extensive damage, according to Syrian media. The country’s Ministry of Health reported that 13 people were injured in the strike.

Additional Israeli airstrikes were reported in the southern province of Suwayda, killing three senior Syrian military and security officers and injuring several civilians.
