Ansarullah condemns Israeli atrocities against Syria

“We are following with great concern the treacherous Israeli aggression against Syria, including the occupation of new areas and villages in Quneitra and Mount Hermon, as well as the intensification of its aggressive airstrikes on the city of Damascus,” Ansarullah said in a statement on Sunday.

“While we condemn and denounce this criminal Zionist aggression against Syria, this aggression constitutes a blatant violation of Syria’s sovereignty and an overt attack on its territory and vital facilities,” it said.

Ansarullah said the aggression “aims to impose a new reality in Syria, exploiting the difficult circumstances the country is experiencing.”

“We affirm our solidarity with Syria in facing Israeli aggression and warn against the indifference of Arab and Islamic regimes toward this dangerous escalation,” it said.

The group said the aggression “may not stop at certain borders but extend to other countries in the region, in light of continued American and Western support for the criminal Zionist entity’s schemes to impose Israeli and American hegemony over the region.”

On Sunday, militant groups led by Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) stormed the capital Damascus and seized its control. President Bashar al-Assad resigned and issued instructions for a peaceful transition of power.

Security sources said Israeli military warplanes carried out a new wave of aerial attacks on Damascus and several other parts of Syria hours targeting the al-Mazzeh military base in Damascus and Khalkhalah in the southern al-Suweida part of the country on Sunday.

The warplanes also hit a major security complex in the Kafr Sousa district of Damascus and bombed several residential areas on the outskirts of the capital.
