Dec 13, 2024, 06:14 PM

The newly appointed Syrian government, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), has filed a formal complaint with the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) regarding Israel's alleged violation of Syrian sovereignty and the 1974 Separation of Forces Agreement. The complaint, issued by Syria's Ambassador to the UN, criticizes Israel for its occupation near the Golan Heights and airstrikes targeting civilian and military sites in Syria. The Syrian government has called on the UNSC to take immediate measures to force Israel to cease its attacks and withdraw from Syrian territory. This action marks the first official communication from the HTS-led transition government to the UNSC since the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad.
