Doha –  December 9, 2024 

The State of Qatar strongly condemns the Israeli occupation's seizure of the buffer zone with the sisterly Syrian Arab Republic and the neighboring leadership sites, considering it a dangerous development and a blatant attack on Syria's sovereignty and unity, as well as a flagrant violation of international law.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs warns that the policy of imposing a fait accompli pursued by the Israeli occupation, including its attempts to occupy Syrian territories, will lead the region to further violence and tension. In this context, The Ministry stresses the need for the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities to compel the occupation to comply with international legitimacy resolutions, as well as to unite in confronting its opportunistic schemes.

The Ministry reiterates the State of Qatar's unwavering stance in support of Syria's sovereignty, independence, and the unity and integrity of its territories. It also expresses its backing for all regional and international efforts aimed at establishing security and stability in Syria and achieving the aspirations of its brotherly people.
