Tehran, December 10 (RHC)-- Iran has strongly denounced the Israeli regime’s repeated attacks on Syria’s infrastructures, and its expanding its occupation of the Arab country’s Golan Heights.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei has also said Tel Aviv’s enlarging the areas under its occupation is “an indication of the occupying regime’s expansionist and belligerent approach and its contempt for all the rules and norms of the international law.”

Beyond the land incursion, Israel has been conducting dozens of airstrikes on Syria since Assad’s fall.

In related news, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres’s spokesman Stephane Dujarric has stressed that Israel's latest incursion constitutes “a violation” of the 1974 disengagement agreement between Israel and Syria.
