Syrian foreign minister condemns Israeli raid in Beit Jinn

Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani condemned the Israeli raid in Beit Jinn in a statement on X (formerly Twitter), referring to it as “an attack that deliberately targeted innocent civilians”.

The raid in southern Syria left 13 people dead and 25 others injured earlier on Friday.

Shaibani also called on “the United Nations, the Security Council, and all Arab and Islamic nations to shoulder their responsibilities in the face of these repeated violations”, adding that “international silence only boldens the aggressor”.
