US lifts ban on military supplies to Syria

From the text

The US State Department said in a statement today that Syria has been removed from the list of countries subject to a policy prohibiting the issuance of licenses and permits required for the export of military equipment and defense services. The statement said the US administration will consider whether to grant such licenses to Syria, adding that the change will take effect on October 1. The United States announced in late August that it had removed Syria from its list of “state sponsors of terrorism.” a.k ANHA
