Iran Press/Middle East: According to the official Syrian government news agency (SANA), the Syrian Foreign Ministry in the letter called on the UN Security Council to assume its responsibilities over maintaining international peace and security and called for immediate action to prevent US attacks on Syrian territory.
Bassam al-Sabbagh, Syria's permanent representative to the United Nations, also addressed the UN Security Council, criticizing the actions of the US occupiers in the country and saying that the humanitarian situation in Syria is being deliberately ignored.
"This blatant aggression is a new link in a series of repeated US aggressions under false pretenses and shameful justifications used by US government officials to justify their aggression," the Syrian Foreign Ministry said in a statement; furthermore, this aggression contradicts the United States' role as a permanent member of the Security Council; a council that claims to be responsible for maintaining international peace and security.
The Syrian Foreign Ministry stressed in the letter: "This aggression will lead to consequences that will aggravate the situation in the region because this is a negative feature of the policies of the new US administration, which is supposed to adhere to international legitimacy, international law and Security Council decisions on the preservation of the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of the Syrian Arab Republic.
The Syrian Foreign Ministry stressed that these hostile policies only lead to the spread of chaos, the destruction of Syrian infrastructure and the escalation of tensions in the region and the world, and are directly in the interest of armed terrorist groups.
On Friday morning, the US Department of Defense announced that the US military, by Biden's order had bombed positions belonging to resistance groups in eastern Syria on the borders of Iraq.
The Saberin News Channel, which is close to the resistance groups, also reported that a US plane targeted resistance positions between Abu Kamal and Al-Qaim on the Syrian-Iraqi border, martyring one and wounding four others. 219
