Syria Condemns Jordanian Airstrikes on Daraa as ‘Unacceptable Violation’

Syria’s Foreign Ministry on Tuesday strongly condemned airstrikes it said Jordan had carried out on several locations in the southern province of Daraa, leaving people dead and wounded.

The ministry said it rejected the strikes “in the strongest terms,” describing them as an unacceptable violation. It did not provide a casualty figure in the statement outlined.

The condemnation came as the ministry also pointed to coordination with Amman on establishing a joint security committee to control the border.

The statement placed Syria’s objections to the airstrikes alongside its efforts to pursue border security cooperation with Jordan, highlighting the two issues without giving further details on the proposed committee.
