Iran, Russia and Turkey, the guarantors of the Astana peace process aimed at resolving the Syria conflict, have expressed their opposition to Israel's use of civilian aircraft to cover-up its attacks on the Arab country.
In a joint statement at the 17th meeting of the Astana process, the guarantor states condemned Israel's continued attacks on Syria, noting that the assaults constitute�a threat to the region's stability and security. They�called for an end to the aggression.
They also stressed that "Israel's use of civilian aircraft to cover-up its aggression on the Syrian territories is a flagrant violation of the international law and endangers the lives of the civilian population,"��Lebanon�s al-Mayadeen television network�reported.
Syria and the Israeli regime are technically at war due to the latter�s 1967-present occupation of the Arab country�s Golan Heights. The Israeli regime maintains a significant military presence in the territory, which it uses as a launchpad for its attacks on the Syrian soil.
