Syria is considering joining a new regional defense alliance led by Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan, per The Media Line.

The move comes as Syria seeks to strengthen its security framework amid ongoing regional instability, Daily Sabah reports.

Meanwhile, Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazimi visited Damascus, where he held discussions with Syrian officials on bilateral cooperation, Long War Journal notes.

The visit follows tensions in Iraq's north and south, which have prompted increased coordination between the two nations.
