Syria’s position is clear: we stand firmly with Saudi Arabia against threats to its security and stability. At the same time, Syria’s policy in the region is focused on stability, peace and cooperation, not opening new fronts. Our priority is Syria: rebuilding the country, strengthening its institutions, working with our partners on reconstruction and improving the lives of Syrians. Any military cooperation with partner countries would take place only through official channels and existing bilateral frameworks.
‼️ Syria may join the war in Yemen. No final decision has been made, but the idea is under discussion, according to multiple sources. Sharaa visited Saudi Arabia today.

Rebuilding and restoring regional partnerships takes vision, commitment, and sustained effort. 🇸🇾🇸🇦 Today’s discussions between Syria and Saudi Arabia represent a thoughtful step forward-moving beyond formal diplomacy into tangible cooperation on reconstruction, energy, agriculture, and trade. With President Ahmad al-Sharaa extending an official invitation to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the groundwork is being laid for a stable, prosperous future.

These claims are false. No such meeting took place.
🚨 SCOOP: The Syrian government and Lebanese militant group Hezbollah have held face-to-face talks in Turkey to try to calm tensions between them, according to six sources briefed on the first known meeting between the longtime foes.

Thousands of Christian families are returning home to Syria. One sign of that return: the Holy Land schools in Qunaya and Yaqubiya have reopened after nearly 60 years of closure under Baathist rule. Families are returning. Schools are reopening. Christian communities are rebuilding their future in Syria. 🇸🇾
بعد إغلاقها لنحو 60 عاماً من قبل حزب البعث ونظام الأسد، شاركنا اليوم في إعادة افتتاح مدرسة الأرض المقدسة في كل من القنية واليعقوبية بمنطقة جسر الشغور في ريف إدلب الغربي، لتعود أبوابها مفتوحة أمام أبنائنا وطلابها، هذا المشهد هو جزء من سوريا التي كنا نحلم بها…سوريا لكل أبنائها. #وزارة_الطوارئ_وإدارة_الكوارث #سوريا

Let’s be clear: Syria has not banned pro-Palestine protests. The Palestinian cause remains deeply rooted in Syria and among the Syrian people. Our support for the rights, dignity, and freedom of the Palestinian people remains unwavering. 🇸🇾🇵🇸 Turning general rules for public gatherings into a “ban on pro-Palestine protests” is simply false.

The internet after watching Syria’s Health Minister shoot: “Hitman.” “ISIS.” “Definitely done this before.” Reality: He left Syria for Germany in 2014, completed his neurosurgery training there, worked in German hospitals, and returned to the new Syria after liberation. Turns out surgeons have steady hands. Who knew? 🎯

Syrian-German relations are on the rise. 🇸🇾🇩🇪 The impact of sanctions relief is becoming increasingly clear. Germany's implementation agencies for technical and financial cooperation, GIZ and KfW, have returned to Damascus after 14 years, and the German House has officially opened its doors. Major German companies are entering the Syrian market: an agreement was previously signed with Siemens Energy, and another agreement with a leading German company in its field is expected to be signed soon.

Large-scale urban recovery requires world-class execution and long-term capital. This partnership sets a major benchmark for modern, master-planned infrastructure in Syria's next chapter.

Just to clarify, the passports shown in the post are the old versions issued by the Assad regime back in 2023. No newly designed Syrian passports have been released yet. The previous regime engaged in numerous unethical practices, including flagrant copyright and design theft. ​That said, the new official Syrian passports, which will feature the country's post-liberation visual identity, are scheduled for release soon. ​What you're seeing right now is simply the older design. The current Syrian government is temporarily continuing to issue it to avoid paralyzing daily life and business while the finalized passports are prepared for rollout.
Syria's government allegedly stole a photo without credit for their passport, but they didn't notice his watermark before printing them. Now Waseem Asmar's name is all over many in-service Syrian passports.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Syrian biometric passport design with the Waseem Asmar Photography watermark dates to the 2023 edition under the prior Assad regime; such passports remain in circulation today. kurdistan24.net/ar/story/935768 turkiyegazetesi.com.tr/dunya/milyonla…
