Syria has condemned a new “military incursion” by Israel in the southwestern Damascus countryside area outside the capital, calling it a “grave threat to regional peace”, in the wake of the two sides recently holding talks in Paris on de-escalating the conflict in southern Syria.
Syria’s Foreign Ministry said on Monday that Israel had sent 60 soldiers to take control of an area inside the Syrian border around Mount Hermon. Israel did not immediately comment on the accusation.
