Syria’s ally Russia has condemned Israeli air strikes on Damascus international airport as provocative and dangerous in light of the Israeli war on Gaza.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Sunday’s strikes could aggravate tensions in the region, already inflamed by the Gaza war.
“We strongly condemn Israel’s latest provocative attack on an important Syrian civilian infrastructure facility,” Zakharova said in a statement.
“We are convinced that such a vicious practice is fraught with extremely dangerous consequences, especially in the context of a sharp aggravation of the situation in the zone of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and the resulting increase in regional tension.”
