Media reports have revealed that Syria's new constitution is expected to be drafted within six months, with the entire transitional process in the country set to conclude in 18 months.  

Turkish newspaper Hürriyet, citing sources, said Wednesday, "A new constitution will be drafted within the first six months and will be submitted for a referendum during this period. Additionally, there will be a new population census and the voter lists will be updated."

The report highlighted that new political parties will be established in accordance with the new constitution.  

"Elections will subsequently be held under United Nations supervision, and the administration will be handed over to the party that succeeds in the elections," the report added.

"This will mark the official end of the interim administration. The entire process will be completed within 18 months, allowing the parties elected by the Syrian people to begin governing the country," the newspaper said.

In preparation for this transitional phase, Syria's military operations administration has tasked Mohammad al-Bashir with forming a new government to oversee the transition. Al-Bashir later announced in a televised statement that he would temporarily serve as the prime minister until March 1, 2025.

'Israel' undermining prospect of stability

As the new Syrian regime attempts to establish a new government, the Israeli occupation is carrying out the largest airstrikes in its history. 

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated on Wednesday that "Israel's actions in Syria" are unlikely to help stabilize the already unstable situation, explaining, "Of course, the strikes, the actions in the Golan Heights area, in the buffer zone area, let's say, they are unlikely to help stabilize the situation in an already destabilized Syria. This can definitely be said."

Peskov also emphasized that Russia remains committed to maintaining dialogue with all countries in the Middle East region, saying, "Russia maintains dialogue with all countries in the region, and we intend to continue doing so."

Regarding reports of the alleged execution of a cousin of Syria's ousted President Bashar al-Assad, Peskov commented, "We have no information. Of course, we are now closely monitoring everything that is happening in Syria... We will continue to look very carefully, of course, and get out of the realities that are taking place on the ground."

Peskov further stated that Russia has already fulfilled its mission in assisting Syria, and seeks stability in the country.
