Lebanon's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants strongly denounced Monday the recent Israeli aggression on Syria and the Israeli enemy's use of Lebanese airspace to bombard Syrian territory.

In a statement, the Lebanese Ministry warned of "the consequences of this aggressive behavior and the continued breach of Lebanese sovereignty, in flagrant violation of international laws and treaties."

The statement pointed out that Lebanon will "file a complaint to the Security Council, asking it to seriously intervene to put an end to these ongoing Israeli violations."

Syrian air defenses confront Israeli aggression on Tartus

The Lebanese response comes hours after the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) confirmed Sunday that Syrian air defenses intercepted "hostile targets in the sky of Tartus and in the air of the Qalamoun mountain range near the Lebanese border."

Earlier, Al Mayadeen correspondent in Damascus reported that three explosions were heard in the Syrian city of Tartus.

In a statement, a military source said that "the Israeli enemy carried out at 20:50 today a missile aggression, targeting some points in Damascus countryside using southeastern Beirut’s air space coincided with another one targeting some points southern Tartous using the Mediterranean air space."

"The aggression led to the death of three soldiers, the wounding of three others," the source indicated.

"Israel" has carried out hundreds of airstrikes against Syria in the last few years, completely violating the integrity and sovereignty of Syria and neighboring countries, such as Lebanon.

US reviews Israeli plans for strikes against targets in Syria

It is noteworthy that The Wall Street Journal had reported that the US pre-screens raids launched by "Israel" against Syria.

According to current and former US officials, "Israel" secretly coordinates with the US on many of the airstrikes it conducts in Syria.

Behind the curtains, current and former officials say that for several years, many Israeli missions have been reviewed in advance for approval by senior officials at US Central Command and the Pentagon.

This means that the formal coordination was previously unknown, and the secrecy surrounding it demonstrates how Washington has sought to support its Israeli ally.
