‼️🇸🇾 The Operations Authority of the Syrian Arab Army:

The SDF organization is violating the ceasefire agreement with the Syrian state and carrying out several attacks, the most notable of which is targeting a military headquarters containing explosive materials and suicide bombers (a former SDF location) inside the Al-Yarubiyah crossing, which resulted in the martyrdom of a number of our soldiers and the injury of others.

We consider these actions a serious escalation and a clear violation of the ceasefire, and a desire by the SDF organization to continue targeting Syrians and their army and disregarding all previous agreements.

The Turkish parliament speaker says there is a security agreement between Turkey and Syria to confront the SDF.

If the SDF violates the agreement, no external forces can currently support them.

Energy Analysts to The National: “With rehabilitation of wells, water-injection systems, power supply and pipelines, Al Omar could plausibly return to 25,000–40,000 bpd of production in two to four years time, from 14,200 bpd in late 2025.”

Moroccan dams have seen a sharp rise in water levels, with the national filling rate climbing to 45.2 % in early January 2026 from 28.4 % last year — an increase of nearly 17 percentage points. This surge in water reserves is expected to directly boost GDP growth by supporting agriculture, one of Morocco’s top three economic sectors.

Yahya Rahim Safavi, Khamenei's military advisor:

“We are preparing for the final battle with Israel, we are not in a ceasefire, we are in a state of war. No protocol, regulation, or agreement has been written between us and the US or Israel. The next war will determine the end of the conflict.

We will respond with everything we have."

The Israeli defense establishment is taking seriously the possibility that an American attack on Iran is near - and is preparing the home front and the forces for possible scenarios. (Haaretz)

Turkey recently deployed an advanced radar at the Damascus airport, a move that could restrict Israeli freedom of action in the country's airspace. (i24)

The Americans have deployed more than 20 refueling aircraft to the UK, Spain, and Qatar, American fighter jets have landed in Cyprus, and THAAD and Patriot air defense batteries have been deployed in the Gulf. Israeli Channel 13

🇹🇷🇸🇾🇮🇱⚡- Turkey has deployed the HTRS-100 radar system to Damascus International Airport, Syria. The radar can detect all airborne targets within a range of up to 115 miles.

Israeli Channel 15 has confirmed the deployment, and claims it severely restricts Israel's freedom of action in Syrian airspace. The south of Syria was a corridor Israel relied upon to approach Iranian borders in the 12 Day War.

Reuters:

Meetings in Damascus, Paris, and Iraq paved the way for Damascus's rapid control of northeastern Syria without American objection.

Tom Barrack informed Mazloum Abdi that Washington's interests are with Al-Sharaa, not the SDF.

This archival clip shows a speech by Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah that contributed to why Israeli leaders, including Benjamin Netanyahu, viewed him as a serious long-term threat.

His rhetoric and influence were closely watched for years and are often cited in discussions around Israel’s decision to ultimately target him.

Since Sunday morning, 18 January, the Syrian pound has strengthened against foreign currencies, reaching 11,000 per US dollar, following the Syrian army’s recapture of key oil and gas fields in eastern Syria, after weeks of fluctuating between 12,000 and 12,800 amid the currency replacement process.

‼️ Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs:

The SDF has three days left to consult on the good offer that has been presented.

We are not surprised by the SDF's violation of the new agreement, as they have violated the March 10th agreement several times.

The latest agreement was reached through an understanding between Damascus and the SDF, and the SDF must unify its position.

The Syrian government has abided by all agreements since it assumed power, while the SDF has violated all the agreements it entered into.

The Foreign Ministry welcomed the transfer of 7,000 prisoners from prisons in Syria to Iraq.

The government has participated in joint operations with the international coalition this year more than the SDF has.
