France wants Israel to evacuate Syria buffer zone

The Foreign Ministry of France has urged Israel to pull out its troops from Syria buffer zone that separates Israel-controlled Golan Heights from Syria.

According to media reports, the Foreign Ministry in France has said on Wednesday that Israel must evacuate the buffer zone that separates Israel from Syria as it is a clear violation of an ongoing agreement.

“Any military deployment in the separation zone between Israel and Syria is a violation of the disengagement agreement of 1974,” a foreign ministry spokesman said.
