Russia condemns Israeli strikes on Syria and considers them a flagrant violation of that country's sovereignty, foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Friday. Zakharova said such actions were "fraught with extremely dangerous consequences" in the light of a sharp escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian war.

Israeli airstrikes have targeted sites associated with Iran and Hezbollah

Moscow and Tehran support Bashar al-Assad's regime.

Without this support, Assad would have fallen years ago.
