Syria's defence minister has urged remaining armed groups to integrate with the security apparatus within 10 days, marking a pivotal step towards consolidating state authority under interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa's leadership.
Six months after the fall of Bashar al-Assad, Syria’s Defence Minister, Murhaf Abu Qasra, has called on smaller armed groups to merge with the country’s security framework within 10 days, warning of unspecified consequences for non-compliance. This announcement aims to solidify state authority and unify military operations under a single institutional framework.
The appeal highlights progress in integrating larger military units into the Defence Ministry, which the minister referred to as a significant milestone. While the statement did not specify any particular groups, it does not appear to include the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
Syria continues to navigate the challenges of post-Assad governance amid intermittent violence. The administration has also received international support, including the lifting of U.S. sanctions following a meeting between President Donald Trump and al-Sharaa, which officials view as a step toward stabilizing the country.
