Lebanese sources tell Syria TV that an unannounced meeting recently took place in Beirut between officials linked to the SDF and representatives of Hezbollah, brokered by a Lebanese party that maintains contacts with both sides. This is notable given the fundamental political and security contradictions between them: the SDF presents itself as a close partner of the United States, while Hezbollah sits firmly inside the Iranian axis! According to the sources, the meeting was exploratory, with no formal agreement or coordination framework. Discussions reportedly focused on developments in Syria and the political and security challenges facing the PKK network in Syria today. This fits a broader pattern. In Iraq, YBS (PKK in Sinjar) has for years coordinated with Kata'ib Hezbollah, another Iran-backed militia operating under IRGC influence. Taken together, it increasingly appears that SDF/PKK leadership is hedging its bets: If Washington refuses to grant autonomy or long-term guarantees in Syria, Tehran and its proxies may be the fallback option. How credible is an “American partner” that simultaneously explores channels with Iran’s most entrenched regional militias?
