Syria Service - Arab media announced that the head of the Syrian interim government, Ahmed al-Sharaa, has begun the process of rebuilding and centralizing the country's security structure by making new appointments in security institutions; an action that, according to these media, is aimed at placing security and intelligence agencies under the direct supervision of the head of the government.
Service of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region - While the international pressure, especially the United States, has increased on the Iraqi government to organize the situation of the armed forces outside of the official structure (military and law enforcement), field reports including Sharq al-Awsat and al-Arabi al-Jadeed tell of the parallel movements of Washington and Baghdad to change the security map of Iraq. These developments are followed in the two axes of "staged plan for liquidation" and "creating a new ministerial structure".
