Saudi Arabia and Syria ink over $6 billion in deals to rebuild Syria's economy post-war.

Syria and Saudi Arabia have signed over $6 billion in investment deals, aiming to rebuild Syria's war-torn economy. The agreements cover sectors like real estate, telecommunications, and finance, and are expected to create about 50,000 direct and 150,000 indirect jobs. The investments reflect Saudi Arabia's support for Syria's interim government and come amid efforts to reintegrate Syria into the global economy, following the fall of former President Bashar Assad. The United Nations estimates that rebuilding Syria could cost up to $250 billion.
