The energy infrastructure in Syria has been subjected to multiple explosions over approximately six weeks, with vital gas lines frequently targeted. These incidents include the destruction of gas transmission lines in Al-Hasakah Governorate, the bombing of parts of the gas supply network connecting the Juba fields to power plants, and the explosion of the gas line supplying the Tishreen power station east of Damascus, which temporarily halted the operation of the Deir Ali and Nasiriyeh stations. Although there is no conclusive evidence so far that directly links these incidents, their repeated timing and the possible involvement of external parties—such as ISIS, smuggling networks, or entities allied with Iran—reflect an attempt to undermine Syria’s ability to manage its energy resources and to hinder its efforts to reclaim its position as a regional energy hub. This is especially significant amid its expanding role in transporting gas from Iraq and Turkey via pipelines and maritime routes, amidst deteriorating conditions in the Strait of Hormuz and efforts to rely on alternative routes.
