Through a statement, the Foreign Ministry repudiated Tel Aviv’s air strikes on Damascus on Saturday evening, which left at least five dead, more than 15 wounded, and material damage to cultural institutions and archaeological sites.

The note denounced the new attack on the sovereignty of Syria and its people following the effects of the devastating earthquakes that occurred two weeks ago.

The institution described as persistent Israel’s violations of the most fundamental norms of international law that reaffirmed its indifference to life in all circumstances, especially in times of tragedy.

On Lebanese soil, parties, lawmakers, political forces, and religious leaders have called on the United Nations and the international community to take a more substantial and decisive stance against Israel’s crimes in the region.
