On February 7, 2026, Syria and Saudi Arabia signed major economic agreements to help rebuild war-torn Syria and boost cooperation. The deals focus on key sectors like aviation, telecommunications, and infrastructure. A highlight is a new low-cost airline jointly owned by Syrian and Saudi partners, often called “Flynas Syria.” This airline will reconnect Syria with regional and international flights after years of limited air service. Plans also include redeveloping Aleppo’s airport and building new international airport facilities. Another big project is the SilkLink telecom initiative, backed by about $1 billion investment. Led by Saudi telecom firms including STC Group, SilkLink will expand Syria’s digital network by laying tens of thousands of kilometers of fiber-optic cables. It aims to improve internet access inside Syria and connect Asia to Europe through Syria. These agreements come after the U.S. lifted sanctions on Syria in late 2025, opening the door for foreign investment. Syria’s new leadership is actively seeking funds to rebuild its shattered economy and infrastructure after years of civil war. Saudi Arabia’s role is part of a wider strategy to support Syria’s recovery. Besides aviation and telecom, deals cover water desalination, infrastructure, and private investment funds. Saudi groups like the Elaf Investment Fund and STC are set to lead major redevelopment projects. The agreements aim to attract foreign capital, create jobs, and restore key services in Syria. A national airline and better airports will reconnect Syria with the world, while telecom upgrades will boost the digital economy. Officials said these moves mark a big step toward economic recovery and stronger ties between Damascus and Riyadh. However, experts warn challenges remain. Political, security, and bureaucratic issues could slow progress. Full benefits may take years to appear. Still, these 2026 deals represent one of the biggest foreign investment efforts in Syria since the civil war began. With focus on aviation and telecommunications, they offer a hopeful path to Syria’s reconstruction and economic revival.
