Sharaa says Israeli insistence on demilitarised south puts Syria in 'dangerous' position

Syrian interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa said Saturday that Israel seeking a demilitarised zone in his country's south puts Syria in a dangerous position, as Israeli forces keep up operations in the area.

Syria has insisted on respecting a 1974 disengagement agreement with Israel "that has held for over 50 years -- in one way or another it is a successful agreement," Sharaa told the Doha Forum, adding that tampering with the deal "and seeking other agreements such as a demilitarised zone... could lead us to a dangerous place."
