Hezbollah: ‘israel’ in overt aggression, infringing on Syria’s sovereignty
Lebanon's Hezbollah resistance movement has urged the international community to intervene against Israel, which they accuse of invading Syria and expanding its unlawful occupation within the Arab nation, amidst the ongoing turmoil there.
In a statement issued on Monday, Hezbollah asserted that Israel’s military involvement in Syria exacerbates instability in the nation, following the recent downfall of President Bashar al-Assad’s government. The overthrow occurred after a swift two-week campaign by militants supported by foreign entities.
The statement denounced the actions of what was referred to as the “Zionist enemy” on Syrian soil, citing the continued occupation of land in the Golan Heights and attacks on Syria’s defense systems as clear acts of aggression and flagrant violations of Syrian sovereignty and the rights of its citizens.
In a statement denouncing the recent attacks, officials emphasized the potential repercussions if such actions persist. They have urged the global community, with a particular focus on Arab and Islamic nations, to take a strong stance against these crimes.
Hezbollah has asserted that Israel’s ongoing attempts to annex additional Syrian territories do not confer any sovereign rights over these areas to the Israeli government.
In the span of the past two days, the Israeli military has launched approximately 300 airstrikes targeting locations within Syria.
In a significant strategic move, forces have taken control of the buffer zone separating the occupied Golan Heights from the remaining territory of Syria, as well as the crucial Mount Hermon.
In a significant development, militants under the leadership of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) seized control of the Syrian capital, Damascus, according to a statement released on Monday. This event follows a series of strategic withdrawals by the Syrian army from key urban centers, including Aleppo, Hama, and Homs.
On November 27, militants launched an unexpected assault in Syria coinciding with the implementation of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hezbollah, which came after over 14 months of conflict.
Since the ceasefire agreement, the Israeli military has reportedly breached the truce on multiple occasions, leading to the deaths and injuries of several Lebanese individuals, according to sources.
In an official statement, Hezbollah condemned Israel’s ongoing occupation of Syrian territory, highlighting it as part of a pattern of daily ceasefire violations and violent attacks on the Gaza Strip.
A resistance group has issued a warning, stating that Israel’s actions pose an immediate threat to the safety of individuals in West Asia. The group emphasized the importance of solidarity in opposing what they described as the usurping regime.
