قَالَ وَزِيرُ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ السُّورِيُّ أَسْعَدُ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ إِنَّ سُورِيَا تَأْمُلُ عَوْدَةَ الْمُحَادَثَاتِ الْأَمْنِيَّةِ مَعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَرِيبًا.
وَجَاءَ ذٰلِكَ بَعْدَ غَارَاتٍ إِسْرَائِيلِيَّةٍ عَلَى قَاعِدَةِ أَبِي الظُّهُورِ الْجَوِّيَّةِ فِي مُحَافَظَةِ إِدْلِبَ يَوْمَ 18 أَغُسْطُسَ.
وَقَالَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ إِنَّ الِاتِّصَالَ بَيْنَ الْجَانِبَيْنِ تَوَقَّفَ بَعْدَ الْغَارَاتِ. لٰكِنَّ الْمُحَادَثَاتِ بِشَأْنِ اتِّفَاقٍ أَمْنِيٍّ كَانَتْ مُتَوَقِّفَةً مُنْذُ بِدَايَةِ الْحَرْبِ مَعَ إِيرَانَ.
وَقَالَتْ سُورِيَا إِنَّ ثَمَانِيَ غَارَاتٍ أَصَابَتِ الْقَاعِدَةَ وَأَحْدَثَتْ أَضْرَارًا مِنْ دُونِ وَفَيَاتٍ. وَقَالَتْ إِسْرَائِيلُ إِنَّهَا هَاجَمَتِ الْقَاعِدَةَ بِسَبَبِ احْتِمَالِ وُجُودِ قُوَّاتٍ تُرْكِيَّةٍ فِيهَا. وَنَفَتْ سُورِيَا وَتُرْكِيَا ذٰلِكَ. وَتُحَاوِلُ الْوِلَايَاتُ الْمُتَّحِدَةُ مُسَاعَدَةَ الطَّرَفَيْنِ عَلَى الْعَوْدَةِ إِلَى الْحِوَارِ.

Syria Hopes Security Talks with Israel Will Resume
Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani said that Syria hopes security talks with Israel will resume soon.
This came after Israeli air raids on the Abu al-Duhur airbase in Idlib governorate on August 18.
Al-Shaibani said that contact between the two sides stopped after the raids. However, talks on a security agreement had been paused since the start of the war with Iran.
Syria said that eight raids hit the base and caused damage, with no deaths. Israel said it attacked the base because Turkish forces might be there. Syria and Turkey denied this. The United States is trying to help the two sides return to dialogue.
