UAE condemns Israeli airstrikes on Abu al-Duhur military airport in Syria

The United Arab Emirates strongly condemned the “Israeli airstrikes” on the Abu al-Dhaher military airport in the Idlib Governorate of the Syrian Arab Republic, reiterating its firm rejection of violations of Syrian sovereignty and threats to its security and stability.

In a statement, the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs noted that “the continuous Israeli attacks on Syrian territory constitute a blatant violation of international law and the 1974 Disengagement Agreement between Syria and Israel, which Israel is obliged to respect.”

The ministry emphasized the UAE’s steadfast position in supporting Syria’s stability and sovereignty over its entire territory, standing alongside the fraternal Syrian people, and backing all efforts aimed at realizing their aspirations for security, peace, a dignified life, peaceful coexistence, and development.

It called on the international community to take immediate action to halt the repeated attacks on Syrian territory, stop escalation, and prevent any developments that could heighten tensions in the region and threaten regional and international peace and security.
