Russia Says Israeli Airstrikes are a "Crude Violation of Syria’s Sovereignty"

@G3News: On Thursday (Feb. 10), Russia said it has “deep” concerns over Israel’s ongoing air campaign in Syria, warning the continued airstrikes could escalate tensions in the region and threaten civilian air traffic.

“Israel’s continuing strikes against targets inside Syria cause deep concern,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said. “They are a crude violation of Syria’s sovereignty and may trigger a sharp escalation of tensions. Also, such actions pose serious risks to international passenger flights.”

She said Russia opposes “attempts to turn Syria into a scene of armed confrontation between third countries.”
