Abstract

The article focuses on US-mediated talks between Syrian and Israeli officials in Paris aimed at reducing tensions following recent sectarian violence in Syria. Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad Al-Shaibani and Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer discussed stabilizing southern Syria and the fragile ceasefire in the Suwayda region, where clashes between the Druze community and Bedouin tribes have occurred. The talks also addressed the reactivation of a 1974 disengagement treaty, which established a buffer zone along the Golan Heights, an area occupied by Israel since 1967. Additionally, the spiritual leader of the Druze community in Israel, Sheikh Muwafaq Tarif, sought US assistance in implementing the truce and addressing humanitarian needs in Suwayda.
