In a significant political development, Syria has announced that it will hold its first parliamentary elections on October 5, 2025. The announcement was made by the country’s official election commission, marking a major moment in Syria’s ongoing political process.
According to officials, the elections will allow Syrians to directly elect representatives to the People’s Assembly for the first time since the devastating years of conflict that left much of the country politically and socially fractured. The government has said that the polls will be conducted under strict security measures and with international observers invited to ensure transparency.
Political analysts say the move is being seen as an effort by Damascus to project stability and legitimacy amid ongoing economic struggles and regional tensions. While some opposition groups remain skeptical about the fairness of the vote, others view it as a step — however small — toward a more inclusive political process.
The elections are expected to draw significant international attention, with countries in the region and beyond closely monitoring the outcome.
