Arab League slams Israeli attacks on military infrastructure in S. Syria

CAIRO, March 21 (Xinhua) -- Arab League (AL) Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul-Gheit on Saturday condemned the Israeli attacks on military infrastructure in southern Syria.

The Israeli attacks constitute a continuous violation of the sovereignty of Syria and jeopardize the Arab country's stability and the safety of its people, Aboul-Gheit said in a statement.

The statement added that the Israeli violations aim to drag the whole region into conflicts, impacting international and regional peace and security.

Aboul-Gheit called on the UN Security Council to take its role to stop the Israeli incursion into Syrian territories.

On Friday, the Israeli military struck military infrastructure sites in southwestern Syria overnight in response to the attacks against the residents of a Druze city in the southern Sweida province.
