Damascus: A two-day Arab summit ended in the Syrian capital Damascus on Sunday with a warning to Israel that an Arab peace offer depends on Israeli behaviour.

Arab governments will review their strategies on peace with Israel, a statement added. It did not say what options were under consideration or when the review would take place.

"The continuation by the Arab side to present the Arab peace initiative is tied to Israel executing its commitments in the framework of international resolutions to achieve peace in the region," a Damascus Declaration said.

The wording was almost identical to that of a decision approved by Arab foreign ministers at a meeting three weeks ago.
