DOHA: Syrian interim President Ahmed Al-Sharaa said Saturday that Israel seeking a demilitarized zone in his country’s south put Syria in a dangerous position, as Israeli forces keep up operations in the area.
Syria has insisted on respecting a 1974 disengagement agreement with Israel “that has held for over 50 years — in one way or another it is a successful agreement,” Sharaa told the Doha Forum, adding that tampering with the deal “and seeking other agreements such as a demilitarised zone... could lead us to a dangerous place.”
