RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, March 21, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Saudi Arabia's foreign ministry condemned on Saturday Israel's strikes on Syrian army camps as "aggression", joining other Arab nations and Turkey in calling on the international community to intervene. The Saudi foreign ministry said in a statement that the kingdom condemned "the blatant Israeli aggression... in flagrant violation of international law and Syrian sovereignty". The Turkish foreign ministry earlier called the Israeli attack "a dangerous escalation" that must be stopped. Egypt, Jordan, Qatar and Kuwait all joined in condemning the Israeli strikes, stressing the need to ensure Syria's sovereignty and the global community's role in preventing such attacks. The Syrian foreign ministry denounced an "outrageous assault on Syria's sovereignty and territorial integrity" and called the Israeli justification "flimsy pretexts and fabricated excuses".
