SDF forces merge into Syrian state
The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) announced their complete dissolution and integration into Syrian state institutions, following a comprehensive agreement with the Syrian government on January 29, 2026. SDF Commander Mishmash Abdi confirmed that the forces’ mission as an independent entity has ended, noting that the Syrian president has shown an open stance regarding the right to teach the Kurdish language and access to education in the mother tongue, as part of the finalized military and administrative integration framework. This came after Syrian forces regained large areas in the eastern and northeastern parts of the country following violations by the SDF, and Damascus reaffirmed that the integration process aims to strengthen the unity of Syrian national institutions.
