Israel intensifies Syria attacks, but HTS leader says doesn’t want conflict

Al Jazeera  

De facto new leader Ahmed al-Sharaa slams Israelis attacks, but says his country cannot afford to enter a new conflict. “More than 60 Israeli air strikes took place over the last 12 hours,” Al Jazeera’s Resul Serdar, reporting from the Syrian capital, Damascus, said, adding that Israel has conducted about 800 air raids across Syria since the ouster of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad last week. “This has been part of the Israeli strategy since the fall of the al-Assad regime to leave the country without air defences against its attacks,” Serdar said. “Israeli tanks are now stationed in towns and villages in Syria’s southwest as the Israeli military expanded its occupation of the Syrian Golan Heights,” said Nabout, reporting from Quneitra. “The Israelis have clearly crossed the disengagement line in Syria, which threatens a new unjustified escalation in the region,” al-Sharaa said, adding that despite the violation, “the general exhaustion in Syria after years of war and conflict does not allow us to enter new conflicts.” “The priority at this stage is reconstruction and stability,” he added.
