- Ahmed Aboul Gheit urged the UN Security Council to ensure Tel Aviv respects the 1974 disengagement agreement
- Israeli attack on Kuwayya killed at least 6 civilians, say Syrian authorities
LONDON: Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit has condemned an Israeli attack on the Syrian village of Kuwayya, in Daraa province, in which several people died.
Aboul-Gheit said on Wednesday the Arab League strongly criticized Israeli aggression against Syria, adding it amounted to a serious violation of the country's sovereignty.
He added Israel was attempting to use the transitional period in Syria “to fuel sedition and conflict.”
Aboul Gheit urged the UN Security Council to halt Israeli action against Syria and ensure Tel Aviv respected international law and the 1974 disengagement agreement.
Syrian authorities said on Tuesday the attack on Kuwayya killed at least six civilians.
Israel has continued its bombing campaign in Syria even after the ousting of Bashar Assad, whose rule came to an end last year after a rebel advance forced him to flee to Russia.
