Israel has presented in Syria several weeks ago, a detailed proposal for a new security agreement, including a map of the region from Damascus southwest to the border with Israel, while Syria, which has not yet responded, is working on a counter -proposal in recent weeks, according to Axios.

The Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs, Ron Dermerand the Syrian Foreign Minister, Assad al-Shaibaniplan to discuss the proposal Wednesday in London today, along with the US envoy, Tom Barackwhich mediates between the countries.

This will be the third trilateral meeting. Sources who know the talks have said that there has been no particular progress, so there is no immediate agreement.

Israel -Syria relations remain strained, with a typical example being Damascus’s bombing in July from the Israeli Air Force.

At the same time, the Trump government has clearly adopted a more friendly attitude towards Ahmed al-Saraa, who overturned and succeeded Bashar al-Assad, discreetly facilitating diplomacy between Israel and Syria.

What does the agreement provide for

The security agreement undergoing the replacement of the 1974 release agreement between the countries, in which the Sinai peninsula was divided into three zones – A, B and C – and different security arrangements and different levels of demilitarization were defined based on their distance from the Israeli.

According to the proposal, Syria is called upon to agree on a broad demilitarized area and a ban on flight on its territory, and nothing will change on the Israeli side of the border. The area southwest of Damascus will be divided into three zones, with Syrians being able to maintain different levels of forces and types of weapons according to the area.

The proposal provides for the extension of the seat belt by 2 kilometers on the Syrian side. In the strip next to the neutral zone and closest to the border with Israel on the Syrian side, no military forces and heavy weapons will be allowed. However, Syria will be able to maintain the presence of police and internal security forces.

A source knowing the details said that based on the proposal, the entire area southwest of Damascus to the Israeli border will be described as a ban on Syrian aircraft.

In return for these restrictions on the Syrian side, Israel has proposed a gradual departure from all the territories it has occupied in Syria in recent months – except for a prison at the top of the strategic terms of Hermes.

A senior Israeli official told Axios that Israel insists on maintaining its presence there in any future agreement, as it is looking forward to maintaining an airspace to Iran via Syria, which would allow possible future Israeli attacks.

According to the news network, citing an Israeli official, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu will seek a meeting with Syrian President Ahmad al-Saraa On the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in late September, but at this stage, the likelihood of this is low.

Meanwhile, Netanyahu said at a press conference on Tuesday that President Trump had invited him to the White House on September 29.
