A Story Just For Me
On Sunday I sat down in Hatay airport feeling tired. The weather conditions were abysmal and I wasn’t looking forward to the next forty eight hours of travel before I got home.
Dear Deeply Readers,
Welcome to the archives of Syria Deeply. While we paused regular publication of the site on May 15, 2018, and transitioned some of our coverage to Peacebuilding Deeply, we are happy to serve as an ongoing public resource on the Syrian conflict. We hope you’ll enjoy the reporting and analysis that was produced by our dedicated community of editors contributors.
We continue to produce events and special projects while we explore where the on-site journalism goes next. If you’d like to reach us with feedback or ideas for collaboration you can do so at [email protected].

A very interesting piece was recently published on Al Monitor by Sultan Saood al-Qassemi. In it he makes the claim that Gulf cities are the new “centers of the Arab world,” and according to him they have usurped the position traditionally held by cities like Cairo, Damascus and Baghdad. Where do Damascus, and Syria, now fit?
