Amman, Sept. 9 (Petra) -- The Ministry of Foreign and Expatriate Affairs strongly condemned on Wednesday the Israeli prime minister’s illegal entry into the Mount Hermon region in Syria, calling it a flagrant violation of Syrian sovereignty and territorial integrity, a breach of international law, and an unacceptable provocation.

Spokesperson for the ministry, Ambassador Fouad Al-Majali, affirmed Jordan’s absolute rejection and severe condemnation of the intrusion, describing it as an escalation that undermines the sovereignty of an Arab nation. He stressed the urgent need to halt all Israeli actions targeting Syria's security and stability, which violate the UN Charter and Israel's obligations under the 1974 Disengagement Agreement.

Al-Majali called on the international community to uphold its legal and moral responsibilities by compelling Israel to cease its provocative and unlawful aggression against Syria, end its occupation of Syrian territory, and adhere to international law and international legitimacy resolutions regarding state sovereignty.

He reaffirmed Jordan's unwavering support for Syria's reconstruction efforts on foundations that guarantee its unity, sovereignty, security, stability, territorial integrity, and the protection of the rights of all Syrian citizens.
