Syrian and Israeli ministers are scheduled to meet in Baku on Thursday to address the security situation in southern Syria, following recent deadly clashes in the region. This meeting follows a similar discussion in Paris last week and comes after Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad Al-Shaibani's visit to Moscow, where he will negotiate the future of Russian military bases in Syria and discuss bilateral cooperation. The talks in Baku are set against a backdrop of ongoing tensions, including Israeli strikes in Syria and efforts to contain violence in Sweida province. Both countries remain technically at war, and the meetings reflect ongoing attempts to manage escalating security concerns and diplomatic relations in the region.
