The article discusses a viral video attributed to the interim Syrian President, Ahmad al-Sharib, in which he threatens to respond to any attack originating from Iraq. However, CNN Arabic's investigation revealed that the statements are old and were taken out of context from an original interview conducted with him in early 2026 during tensions between Syria and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). Al-Sharib clarified that his remarks pertain to internal affairs, emphasizing that he is not issuing threats but rather explaining the situation and offering advice. He reiterated that Syria is prepared to respond to any attack in accordance with the agreements made, with the aim of achieving regional stability. He also pointed out that the current circumstances coincide with reports of Jordan and Iraq contemplating strikes against Iran-backed factions if they attack Jordan, amid heightened security tensions in the region.
