How this works

A headline is about Syria when it holds the country's name, what its people are called, or one of its main cities or regions, as whole words. A headline is from Syria when the publication's website address ends in the country's code, or when we have listed the publication by hand. This is word matching, so a headline can be missed, and one about something else can slip in. Only the last 7 days are kept here. For older headlines, search for Syria. Updated every ten minutes, about 2026-10-11 03:00 UTC.
