Interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa of Syria announced the country is in indirect discussions with Israel through mediators to mitigate escalating tensions following increased Israeli airstrikes. The calls for dialogue aim to avoid further conflict that could spiral out of control. During his visit to Paris, al-Sharaa emphasized that Syria is reaching out to other nations to press Israel to halt its military interventions, which he blames for contributing to instability. He also called for lifting international sanctions on Syria from previous regimes, indicating a desire for improved diplomatic relations.
"There are indirect talks with Israel through mediators to calm and attempt to absorb the situation so that it does not reach a level that both sides lose control over."
"Damascus was talking to states that communicate with Israel to pressure them to stop intervening in Syrian affairs and bomb some of its infrastructure."
