Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi strongly condemned the Israeli attack on the Syrian town of Koya on Tuesday.
In a statement, Albudaiwi said the attack is an extension of Israel’s aggressive policy of undermining security and stability in the region.
He referred to a statement issued by the Ministerial Council of the GCC in its 163rd session that emphasized the importance of respecting Syria's sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity.
The security and stability of Syria are essential pillars for the stability of the region's security, as well as for maintaining regional and international peace and security, he stressed.
Moreover, he underlined the need for the international community to fulfill its responsibilities to stop these repeated Israeli attacks on Syrian territory and called for the withdrawal from all occupied Syrian lands.
The Muslim World League (MWL) also condemned the attack.
In a statement, MWL Secretary-General and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars Sheikh Dr. Mohammed bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa slammed Israel's violation of international laws and norms and its actions that are destabilizing Syria and the region.
He called on the international community to take immediate and decisive action against these dangerous violations.
He expressed full solidarity with Syria and its people against all threats to its security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.
