Moreover, Saudi Arabia reaffirmed its solidarity with Syria against the unjustified Israeli aggression. It also urged the UN Security Council member states to assume their role, stand firmly against the ongoing Israeli attacks in Syria and the region, and activate international accountability mechanisms, the statement added.
On Tuesday, an intense artillery and air bombardment targeted the Syrian town of Koya in the western Daraa countryside, claiming the lives of 6 civilians, according the Syrian Foreign Ministry.
The Israeli military said its troops had clashed with armed men who had opened fire on them. It added that Israeli troops returned fire and that an Israeli warplane hit the militants, Reuters reported.
Syria’s Foreign Ministry called for an international investigation into Israel’s attacks on Syrian territory, which it described as “flagrant violation of national sovereignty and international law.”
