Syria’s Foreign and Expatriates Ministry has called on the UN Security Council to terminate tIsraeli regime violations along Syria’s borders, restating Syria’s right to respond to any breach of its sovereignty.

Referring to the identical letters sent to the Security Council and the UN Secretary General, the ministry said on Tuesday that Syria "expects the Security Council to put an end to the Israeli violations that breach the UN Charter and the Disengagement Agreement."

 

The mentioned letters were on the Israeli vehicle which crossed the cease-fire line and two rockets fired by the Israel from the occupied site of Tal al-Faras toward one of the Syrian sites in al-Zubaydiah village.

 

"While Syria places these facts before the Security Council, it once again reaffirms its right to immediately respond to any violation of its sovereignty and the sanctity of its land, and that lies within the framework of practicing its right to self-defense," the Ministry said.

 

The Israeli regime has recently boosted its military activities in the Golan Heights, where clashes between the Syrian army and the militant groups continue.

 

Syria has been gripped by unrest for over two years, and many people, including large numbers of Syrian soldiers and security personnel, have been killed in the foreign-sponsored militancy.
