Syria calls for a Security Council meeting on Israeli attacks

Syria called on the UN Security Council on Wednesday to convene as soon as possible "to discuss the repercussions of the Israeli aggression on Syrian territory," according to a letter seen by Reuters.


On Wednesday, Israel bombed the Syrian army's general headquarters in Damascus, after threatening to intensify its strikes against government forces if they did not withdraw from the Druze-majority city of Sweida, following three days of violence that left more than 300 dead.
