Russia's UN envoy voices concern over “Israel's” expansion in the occupied Golan Heights, stressing that Russia doesn't recognize “Israel's” sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights that are part of Syria.

The statement came after “Israel's” official statement of support for Ukraine in the ongoing crisis.

“Israel” condemned Russia on Thursday morning, hours after Moscow launched its special military operation in Donbass.

Foreign Israeli Minister Yair Lapid said that “the Russian attack on Ukraine is a serious violation of the international order,” adding “Israel condemns the attack, and is ready and prepared to provide humanitarian assistance to the citizens of Ukraine.”

It is worth mentioning that “Israel” occupied the Syrian Golan Heights in the 1967 Six-Day War.
