Palestine sides with Damascus in opposing Israeli attacks on Syrian sovereignty

Palestine supports Damascus in opposing Israeli attacks, which are seen as an interference in Syria’s sovereignty, told the foreign affairs adviser of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Nabil Shaath.

“Israel attacked Syria’s sovereignty on a regular basis, interfered with the conflict directly in this country, so we are supporting Syria against Israeli attacks on Syrian sovereignty,” Shaath said.

The official expressed hope for a speedy settlement of the Syrian crisis with the support of Moscow.
