Syria: Israeli aggressive policies threaten region with all-out escalation
Amid the Israeli regime's back-to-back attacks against Syria, the Arab country warns that the occupying regime's aggressive policies threaten the region with all-out escalation and a new phase of instability.
Syria's foreign ministry issued the warning on Tuesday while making mention of the regime's several rounds of aggression against the capital Damascus, the western Syrian city of Homs, and the cities' suburbs over the past few days, the official Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported.
The latest of the attacks hit the vicinity of Damascus earlier in the day, causing the death of two civilians and leaving some material damage.
This was the fourth missile strike to be carried out by the occupying regime against Syria in less than a week.
The attack came after the regime conducted an airstrike against positions across the country's central Homs Province on Sunday, injuring five soldiers.
Two earlier attacks on Damascus were carried out on Thursday and Friday. The Friday attack led to the martyrdom of two members of the Iranian military advisory mission that is present in the Arab country at Damascus' request to help its forces in their fight against foreign-backed terrorist groups.
On Sunday, Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) issued a stern warning to the Israeli regime, vowing retaliation for Tel Aviv's killing of the advisors.
The Tel Aviv regime mostly keeps quiet about its attacks on Syrian territory, which many views as a knee-jerk reaction to the increasing success of the country's government and its allies in confronting terrorism.
To escape from the repercussions of its acts of aggression, however, the Israeli regime tries to "hide behind the umbrella of immunity and unlimited support from its protectors," the Syrian foreign ministry added.
The ministry was referring to the United States and its allies and their provision of unreserved protection for the regime against the slightest instance of accountability across the international organizations for its violations and atrocities.
Tel Aviv, the ministry added, even "follows in the footsteps of its sponsors in Washington and other Western capitals in exporting crises and escaping from internal problems to external aggressions and crimes," the ministry concluded.
