Syria and Israel in direct talks focused on security: Reuters

  • Israel and Syria held direct face-to-face talks in recent weeks focused on joint security near their shared border region.
  • These talks followed years of hostility and build on backchannel discussions prompted by Syria's new rulers' efforts to reduce tensions with Israel.
  • Syria's acting president Ahmed al-Sharaa acknowledged that discussions conducted through intermediaries are underway to help avert conflict and decrease Israeli military activities near the Golan Heights buffer area.
  • A letter reviewed by Reuters indicated Syria's commitment to ensuring it does not pose any danger to other nations, Israel among them, reflecting a positive intent in the discussions.
  • Officials familiar with the process say these talks could lead to wider political agreements in the future, although full normalization is expected to require significant time.
