Saudi Arabia said on Tuesday it was following the developments in Syria, expressing its “satisfaction” with the measures taken by the government to achieve security and stability, maintain civil peace, and achieve the sovereignty of the state and its institutions over all Syrian territory.

The measures will help in preserving Syria's unity and security and meeting the aspirations of the people.

The Kingdom condemned the continued blatant Israeli attacks on Syrian territory, interference in its internal affairs, and destabilization of its security and stability in flagrant violation of international law and the 1974 Disengagement Agreement between Syria and Israel.

The Kingdom renewed its call to the international community to stand by Syria, support it at this stage, and confront the ongoing Israeli attacks and violations against it.
