The League of Arab States condemned the Israeli attack on the Iranian Consulate building in Damascus on 1 April, viewing it as a blatant violation of the sovereignty of the Syrian Arab Republic and a serious breach of international law, particularly the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations concerning the respect for diplomatic premises.
An official source within the General Secretariat cautioned against the perilous implications of Israel's actions, which seek to escalate regional conflict and plunge the area into chaos. The source emphasised the urgent need to persist in efforts to halt this ongoing conflict immediately and to put an end to Israel's daily perpetration of crimes.
