Cairo, March 09, 2025 — The General Secretariat of the Arab League has expressed deep concern regarding the ongoing security situation in Syria, particularly in the coastal region, where escalating clashes have led to significant instability. In a statement issued today, the Arab League condemned the recent acts of violence targeting government security forces, as well as the indiscriminate killings that have left many innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. The organization also strongly criticized any foreign interference that seeks to escalate the internal conflict, undermine civil peace, and further complicate Syria's already fragile situation.
The Arab League emphasized that such acts of violence and external intervention pose a grave threat to Syria’s national stability and hinder the country's potential for recovery. The region, which has already been devastated by years of conflict, now faces even more challenges as it struggles to rebuild and restore peace. The League's statement called for an immediate cessation of violence and the urgent need for policies that prioritize the preservation of civil peace and national unity.
Furthermore, the Arab League reiterated its commitment to supporting Syria's sovereignty and territorial integrity, stressing that any efforts aimed at destabilizing the country only serve to exacerbate the suffering of its people. The statement pointed out that foreign actions and interference only prolong the crisis and make the road to peace and recovery more difficult. In light of these developments, the Arab League urged all parties involved to act with restraint and to focus on policies that strengthen stability within Syria.
The Arab League also called for a renewed commitment to finding a peaceful resolution to the Syrian conflict, emphasizing that diplomatic efforts, dialogue, and cooperation among all stakeholders are the only viable pathways to achieve lasting peace. In this context, the Arab League reaffirmed its role as a facilitator for peace and stability in the region, offering its support to initiatives that seek to bring an end to the violence and foster conditions conducive to reconciliation.
The organization concluded by calling on the international community to join in efforts that prioritize Syria’s long-term stability and reconstruction. It urged all actors to work together, putting aside divisions, to ensure that Syria can begin to recover from the devastating consequences of years of war and move toward a future where peace, prosperity, and national unity can be restored.
