UNIFI Communications, the Syrian Telecommunications Establishment (STE), and the Cyprus Telecommunications Authority (CYTA) signed a Construction and Maintenance Agreement for the UGARIT 2 submarine cable.

The parties finalized the agreement in Damascus on July 28, 2026.

This project represents the first significant international infrastructure deal executed under Syria’s new economic framework.
