Syria and Saudi Arabia Sign Energy Sector Agreements

Syria and Saudi Arabia have signed four new agreements in the oil and gas industry. The deals involve Syria's state-owned petroleum company and several Saudi firms, according to Syrian state media. The agreements signal a step toward rebuilding economic ties between the two nations. Syria's energy infrastructure has suffered severe damage after more than a decade of conflict. While the specific projects and financial terms remain undisclosed, the move aligns with a broader regional trend of diplomatic re-engagement with Damascus. Saudi Arabia reopened its embassy in Syria last year.
