Syria Advises Saudi Arabia on Houthi Defense, Signaling Gulf Realignment
🛡️ DAMASCUS — Syria is advising Saudi Arabia, a country it was at war with by proxy for a decade. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Damascus's post-HTS government is now offering military expertise to Riyadh — the same axis that funded Syrian opposition. The pivot signals Syria seeking Gulf normalization currency. For Iran, a Syria drifting toward Saudi alignment closes one proxy corridor and complicates Houthi coordination. Watch whether this is advisory only or escalates to hardware.
