Abu Dhabi: The UAE has condemned the “serious Israeli escalation” in Syria, after strikes on villages in the Damascus countryside, saying the attacks represent an unacceptable violation of Syrian sovereignty and a threat to the country’s security and stability.

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urged the international community to take immediate action to halt repeated attacks on Syrian territory and to prevent further escalation that could fuel tensions and endanger regional and international peace.
