In an interview with Al-Estiklal, cybersecurity expert Ali Alrahbe said Syria faces growing cyber threats requiring a comprehensive national strategy, while discussing digital vulnerabilities, hybrid information warfare, and the need to strengthen cyber defenses.

Located about 12 miles west of Damascus, Yaafour, one of Syria’s most exclusive residential areas, is once again attracting attention as investment interest grows around reconstruction projects and economic reopening efforts.

The reintegration of displaced Syrians into their original communities after years of forced displacement poses a strategic challenge for the Syrian government, as it seeks to demonstrate its ability to address the lasting damage of prolonged suffering and forced exile.

In Syria’s fragile economy, where reconstruction could cost hundreds of billions, the fallout from regional conflict is rippling beyond the battlefield, threatening the country’s key economic bets.

The Syrian state has put forward an unexpected model in handling the file of dismantling the Syrian Democratic Force (SDF), which continues to stall the integration process by holding on to pressure cards against Damascus.
