UN Official Condemns Israeli Incursion in Damascus Countryside

Geneva: The United Nations Deputy Special Envoy for Syria, Najat Rochdi, condemned on Friday the Israeli occupation incursion into Syrian territory in the Damascus countryside, which has reportedly resulted in the deaths of civilians.

According to Kuwait News Agency, in a statement issued in Geneva, Rochdi stressed that such actions constitute a grave and unacceptable violation of Syria's sovereignty and territorial integrity, further destabilizing an already fragile environment.

She reported that the raid and accompanying strikes have also triggered the displacement of families from the town of Beit Jinn, forcing them to flee to nearby areas in search of safety.

The Deputy Special Envoy reaffirmed the United Nations' steadfast commitment to the sovereignty, unity, independence, and territorial integrity of Syria. She called for the immediate cessation of all such violations and urged full adherence to the 1974 Disengagement Agreement.
