Syria condemned the visit as a &#8220;dangerous violation&#8221; of its sovereignty and an &#8220;illegal&#8221; act that defies United Nations Security Council resolutions. Damascus called on Israel to withdraw its forces from Syrian land in accordance with the 1974 Disengagement Agreement, emphasizing that all israeli actions in southern Syria are null and void under international law. Netanyahu stated that Israel&#8217;s military presence in the area is crucial for national security. The UN secretary-General <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/abc-political-director-rick-klein-calls-for-cleansing-pro-trump-movement\/\" title=\"ABC Political Director Rick Klein calls for \u2018cleansing\u2019 pro-Trump movement\">expressed concern<\/a> over the visit and urged Israel to respect the ceasefire agreement. The ongoing dispute reflects the broader tension between Syria and Israel over control of the Golan Heights, with no imminent security agreement expected between the two countries.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Syria calls Netanyahu&rsquo;s unannounced visit to Golan Heights &lsquo;dangerous violation&rsquo; of sovereignty<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2398392\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/syria\/\">Syria<\/a> called Israeli Prime Minister <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/benjamin-netanyahu\/\">Benjamin Netanyahu<\/a>&lsquo;s unannounced Wednesday visit to the Golan Heights, an annexed portion of Syrian land controlled by <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/israel\/\">Israel<\/a>, a &ldquo;dangerous violation&rdquo; of its sovereignty in a sharp rebuke of the Jewish state.<\/p>\n<p>In a written statement, Damascus condemned Netanyahu&rsquo;s &ldquo;illegal&rdquo; visit to southern Syria and expressed concern over Israel&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >de facto control<\/a> of the territory.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/3892359\/nigerian-president-puts-off-g20-trip-to-focus-internal-security-issues\/\">Nigerian president puts off G20 trip to focus on internal security issues<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3891728\/poland-shut-last-russian-consulate-in-country\/\">Poland to shut last Russian consulate in the country after railway sabotage<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/3891174\/zelensky-ukraine-andriy-yermak-corruption-scandal\/\">Zelensky under heavy pressure to fire Ukrainian &#8216;co-president&#8217; Andriy Yermak after corruption scandal<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates affirms that this visit represents a new attempt to impose a de facto situation that contradicts relevant U.N.
