Kuwait’s Zain obtains license to operate mobile network in Syria: Reuters

Three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters that Kuwaiti telecommunications company Zain Group has obtained a license to operate a mobile phone network in Syria.

According to the sources, the 20-year license — first reported by Bloomberg — grants Zain a 75% stake in the local operation, while Syria’s sovereign wealth fund will hold the remaining 25%.
