3 Deadlines to Determine the Levant’s Fate: Syria, Lebanon, Gaza
This year in the Middle East, the “by- year-end-or-else” comes in triplicate.

Syria
The third deadline, also for year’s end, is to integrate the U.S.-backed Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces, or SDF, into the Syrian army. The deadline was set by the so-called March agreement, signed between President Ahmed al-Sharaa and the SDF, which mandated progress in unifying their forces by the end of 2025.
Media reports say the Syrian government recently sent a proposal to Kurdish leaders expressing openness to integrating about 50,000 fighters into three main divisions and smaller brigades under the Syrian Defense Ministry. In return, Damascus demanded that its forces enter areas currently controlled by the SDF.
The United States, through presidential envoy Tom Barrack, has been heavily involved in the talks after previously mediating the March agreement.
But the situation on the ground has deteriorated. Clashes erupted between the Syrian army and the SDF in Aleppo province on Dec. 22, resulting in injuries on both sides, according to Syrian media reports.
Here, too, time appears to be a critical factor — in Syria, as in Lebanon and Gaza. Whether the situation in the Levant escalates or stabilizes in 2026 depends on three deadlines, all expiring in mere days.
