In a dramatic escalation, Israeli warplanes launched a wave of airstrikes on southern Syria, targeting tanks, convoys, and rocket launchers in the governorates of Suwayda and Daraa. The strikes followed deadly sectarian clashes in Suwayda that killed over 30 people and injured nearly 100, prompting Syria to declare a ceasefire and withdraw heavy military equipment.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the military action to disrupt the movement of Syrian and Iranian-backed militias advancing near Israel’s northern border. The Israeli Defense Forces say the attacks were aimed at halting the convoys before they reached strategic positions.
As Syria burns and Iran looms in the background, the question now is: How close are we to a broader war in the region?

In a stunning diplomatic development, officials from Israel and Syria are holding quiet, backchannel talks for the first time in over a decade. This move comes after months of intense regional conflict involving Iran-backed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, pushing both Jerusalem and Damascus to reassess their long-standing enmity. The United States, with backing from Donald Trump and his envoy Tom Barrack Jr., is mediating the effort, aiming to cool tensions along the volatile Golan Heights border.
At the center of this pivot is Syria's new president, Ahmed al-Shara, who has signaled a dramatic shift from the hardline rejectionism of the Bashar al-Assad era. The primary driver for this newfound diplomacy is a shared strategic goal: limiting the influence of Iran and its proxies in southern Syria. For Israel, this is a matter of national security; for al-Shara's new government, it's a path toward securing sovereignty, gaining Western legitimacy, and obtaining much-needed economic relief.
While full normalization seems distant, both sides are exploring a revival of the 1974 U.N. Disengagement Agreement, which previously ensured stability in the Golan Heights. In a significant gesture, the Trump administration has lifted the terrorist designation on al-Shara's former group, and Israeli leaders have softened their tone, describing him as someone they could potentially work with. However, analysts remain cautious, pointing to al-Shara’s past and the lack of public support for peace in Syria as major hurdles.
Despite the challenges, the fact that these talks are happening at all represents a potential seismic shift in Middle East politics. This report breaks down the key players, the high stakes, and what this surprising diplomacy could mean for the future of the region.
