RIYADH — Saudi Arabia on Thursday strongly condemned the ongoing Israeli violations in the region, including renewed attacks on the Gaza Strip and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to Israeli troops stationed in southern Syria.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urged the international community to take responsibility and act to halt Israel’s violations of international laws and agreements, particularly the recent ceasefire deal in the Gaza Strip.
The condemnation follows Israeli airstrikes in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis early Thursday, which killed five people and raised the death toll from a series of attacks over the previous 12 hours to 33. The strikes are among the deadliest since the US-brokered ceasefire took effect on October 10.
The ministry also emphasized the need to stop Israeli violations of Syrian sovereignty and to respect the 1974 Agreement on Disengagement between Israel and Syria. It reiterated that adherence to the agreement is essential for maintaining regional security, stability, and the unity of Syrian territory.
Netanyahu’s visit on Wednesday to the Israeli troops deployed in a buffer zone inside Syria was accompanied by Defense Minister Israel Katz, Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, military chief Eyal Zamir, Shin Bet Director David Zini, and Israel’s Ambassador to the United States Yechiel Leiter.
