Lapid: Israel should avoid ‘unnecessary statements’ that push Syria’s new leadership ‘onto different path’
Opposition Leader Yair Lapid says Israel must approach the “complex” situation in Syria “with care and responsibility,” and warns Israeli officials against “unnecessary statements that could push the new Syrian government onto a different path.”
He clarifies that he supports the expansion of an Israeli buffer zone along the Syrian border “until the situation becomes clear,” but says that at the same time, Israel must work to build a regional coalition against the Iranian axis.”
