The United Nations calls for respecting the “disengagement” agreement between the Assad regime and Israel
United Nations spokesman Stephane Dujarric called on both the Assad regime and Israel to exercise restraint, avoid escalation and respect the “disengagement” agreement, in light of the tension caused by the fall of a Syrian missile in the Negev desert near the Israeli “Dimona” reactor.
“We are aware of what has been reported about the missile strikes in Israel and Syria, and we are still concerned about these developments,” Dujarric said during a video conference, urging “the parties to exercise maximum restraint and avoid the risk of escalation.”
He reminded both the Assad regime and Israel of their obligations, and the need to respect the 1974 “disengagement” agreement, which stipulates that the two sides adhere strictly to a ceasefire on land, sea and air, and to refrain from all military actions against each other in implementation of Security Council Resolution 338 of 22 From October of 1973.
The Israeli occupation targeted the sites of the Assad regime forces and Shiite militias in the Dameer area in Eastern Qalamoun, in the countryside of Damascus, and around the capital, Damascus.
This coincided with sounding sirens in the Abu Qurainat area near the Dimona nuclear reactor in the occupied territories.
