According to media reports, Israel intervened in the armed conflict in southern Syria starting on July 14 and launched heavy airstrikes on Wednesday targeting areas near the "presidential palace" and other locations. When commenting on the situation, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said that Syria's sovereignty and territorial integrity should be respected.
Especially amid the ongoing turbulence in the Middle East, actions that could further escalate tensions should not be taken, said Lin.
