Story summary

At the United Nations General Assembly, Syria’s President Ahmed al-Sharaa called for Israel to withdraw from internationally recognized Syrian territory, specifically highlighting the occupied Golan Heights, which Syria considers inseparable from its sovereignty. Al-Sharaa asserted that Israeli actions undermine Syria's security and post-civil war recovery efforts. He detailed over 500 air strikes, more than 1,200 incursions, and nearly 300 detentions by Israel since he took power in 2024 after overthrowing Bashar al-Assad’s regime. Al-Sharaa warned that such aggressions are reminiscent of a past era thought to be long gone, emphasizing Syria's rejection of Israeli attempts to impose new facts on the ground.
