Cairo - Arab League Secretary General Amr Mussa on Monday condemned the US raid in Syria on Sunday, describing it as 'a violation of Syrian sovereignty.' Mussa told reporters at the League's headquarters that the US action did not help stability in the already volatile region. He underlined the Arab League's support for Syria's 'right to defend its land and people' and called for an investigation in the incident to 'hold those responsible into account.' Mussa, who offered his condolences to the families of the eight reported victims, said the Cairo-based league was in contact with the Syrian government about the situation.
