President Donald Trump has hinted at easing long-standing U.S. sanctions on Syria, citing new overtures from Syrian leader Sharaa and a potential “fresh start.” Sharaa is offering U.S. companies access to valuable minerals in a Ukraine-style deal and has even floated the idea of a Trump Tower in Damascus.
Talks are reportedly being brokered by intermediaries from Saudi Arabia and Turkey, while Trump’s advisers remain divided.
A possible meeting with Sharaa during Trump’s Mideast trip remains unconfirmed as regional power dynamics shift and economic opportunities open.

President Donald Trump arrived in Saudi Arabia for high-level trade talks, greeted with an extravagant welcome by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The reception included a royal fighter jet Escort and a traditional coffee ceremony—though Trump declined the coffee, a move considered culturally insensitive. Secretary of State Marco Rubio accepted on Trump’s behalf, easing tension. To cater to Trump’s preferences, Saudi officials even arranged McDonald’s trucks near the venue. The visit reflects the Kingdom’s strategic effort to strengthen U.S. ties—mixing tradition with tailored hospitality.

Israel has confirmed launching powerful airstrikes near the presidential palace in Damascus, targeting areas linked to Abu Mohammad al-Julani, the Islamist leader who seized power in Syria after Bashar al-Assad’s ouster. The strikes, which rattled the Syrian capital, come amid escalating sectarian clashes involving the Druze minority, following inflammatory religious remarks that sparked deadly unrest. Israel cited direct threats to the Druze community as the reason for the operation, warning Syria against sending forces south of Damascus

Tripoli was plunged into violent unrest after reports surfaced of the assassination of Abdelghani al-Kikli, the influential head of the UN-backed Stability Support Apparatus (SSA). Armed clashes erupted across key neighborhoods, including Abu Salim and Mashrou, with heavy gunfire and explosions shaking the capital overnight. Panic spread rapidly as rival militias—reportedly the 111th and 444th brigades—stormed the SSA headquarters following failed negotiations. Social media footage shows bodies on the streets and burning vehicles, while hospitals brace for a surge in casualties.

A ballistic missile launched by Houthi rebels in Yemen triggered air raid sirens across northern Israel, including in Haifa. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) intercepted the missile mid-air, but falling debris damaged the roof of a kindergarten at Kibbutz Mishmar Ha’emek. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. This marks an escalation in long-range threats from Yemen. In response, Israel struck a target near Damascus as tensions heighten. Israeli leaders warned against any hostile movements south of Damascus or threats to the Druze community amid regional instability.
