Israel warns UN of Syria war spilling over its borders
UNITED NATIONS – Israel warned the UN Security Council on Monday that it could not be expected to “stand idle” as Syria’s civil war spills over its border, while Russia accused armed groups of undermining security between the states by fighting in a demilitarized zone.
Israeli UN Ambassador Ron Prosor wrote to the 15-member council to complain about shells from Syria landing in Israel.
“Israel cannot be expected to stand idle as the lives of its citizens are being put at risk by the Syrian government’s reckless actions,” Proser wrote. “Israel has shown maximum restraint thus far.”
Israel does not have a reputation for being idle. Defense Minister Ehud Barak said that an attack on a Syrian arms complex on Jan. 30 showed Israel was serious about preventing the flow of heavy arms into Lebanon, appearing to acknowledge that the Jewish state carried out the strike.
The United Nations says more than 70,000 people have been killed during a two-year revolt against Syrian President Bashar Assad, which began as peaceful protests but turned violent when Assad’s forces cracked down on the demonstrations.
