Syria-Israel Peace Talks Advance Amid Tensions
The agreement aims to halt Israeli attacks and Syrian troop advances near the border, following over 1,000 Israeli strikes on Syria, officials said.
- Syria and Israel are negotiating a de-escalation agreement on September 24, 2025, aiming to halt Israeli attacks and limit military activity near their border.
- This discussion follows decades of hostility, recent Israeli strikes on Syrian military targets, and last December's overthrow of Syria's President Assad amid ongoing territorial disputes.
- U.S. Special Envoy Tom Barrack called the pact a first step toward a broader security deal, while former rebel leader Sharaa expressed concern Israel may be delaying progress.
- Since December, Israel has conducted over 1,000 air strikes and 400 ground incursions, pushing troops to within 20 kilometers of Damascus, applying military pressure during talks.
- If finalized, the agreement could reduce regional tensions and slow hostilities, but progress has been hindered by the Rosh Hashana holiday and persistent mistrust.
