The Government of Venezuela condemned on Monday the attack carried out by the Army of the Zionist regime of Israel in the Syrian Arab Republic, which left 16 people killed and more than 40 injured.

In a statement released by Foreign Minister Yván Gil on his Telegram channel, the Bolivarian Government states that “this new Zionist aggression ratifies the savage, immoral and inhuman face of the Tel Aviv regime against the Syrian nation and the flagrant violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of this country.”

Below is the full text of the document:

The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela strongly condemns the attack carried out by the Israeli Army against the town of Masyaf and Wadi Al Oyoun on the outskirts of Hama, in the Syrian Arab Republic, on September 9, 2024, which killed 16 people, caused 43 injuries with various injuries, and provided serious material damage to structures.

This new Zionist aggression confirms the savage, immoral and inhuman face of the Tel Aviv regime against the Syrian nation and the flagrant violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of this country, as well as the premeditated intention to continue with the expansionist policy of war in the region and the prosecution of abominable crimes against peoples who have decided to be free.

Venezuela reiterates its strongest repudiation of the arrogant acts of the Zionist entity that cause the death of thousands of martyrs, cause multiple injuries and cause the destruction of entire communities, generating, in addition, a dangerous and growing escalation of political and military tension in the Middle East, as part of repeated and flagrant Israeli violations of Syrian territory and other States.

The Bolivarian Government urges the international community to take decisive action to permanently stop the repeated attacks and violations of international law by the Zionist entity and its collaborators against the peoples of Palestine, Syria and Lebanon.

We express our most heartfelt words of encouragement, peace and comfort to the families and relatives of the victims, for such irreparable losses, while we hope for the speedy recovery of the injured and that justice and absolute peace will prevail throughout the region.
