DPRK: SLAMS ISRAEL FOR INTRUDING SYRIA'S AIR TERRITORY September 11, 2007
(SomaliNet) The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Tuesday lashed out at Israel for intruding Syria's territorial air space last Thursday, the official news agency reported.
"This is a very dangerous provocation little short of wantonly violating the sovereignty of Syria and seriously harassing the regional peace and security," a spokesman for the DPRK Foreign Ministry was quoted as saying by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).
"The DPRK strongly denounces the above-said intrusion and extends full support and solidarity to the Syrian people in their just cause to defend the national security and the regional peace," he added.
Syrian defense forces opened fire on Israeli aircraft after they flew over northern Syria and dropped ammunition on Sept. 6, according to Syria's official media.--Xinhua
