Jerusalem Post: Report: Israel, Iran engage in indirect negotiations over Syria fighting

The report said a Jordanian mediator carried messages between the sides.

Israel and Iran engaged over the weekend in indirect negotiations in Jordan regarding fighting in southwestern Syria, according to a Saudi-owned website.

According to the Elaph website, the Iranians pledged not to participate in expected battles in southwestern Syria between President Bashar Assad’s forces and rebel groups, and Israel has made it clear that it will not intervene in the battles in the tri-border area, as long as Hezbollah and the Iranian-backed Shi’ite militias are not involved.

The report said a Jordanian mediator carried messages between the sides.
