> The US Treasury says it has removed Syria from its decades-old list of state sponsors of terrorism and revoked the global terrorist designation for al-Nusrah Front, also known as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, formerly led by President Ahmed al-Sharaa. Washington says the move should encourage investment and support Syria’s political and economic stability.
