History
Syrian Telecom, formerly the Syrian Telecommunications Establishment, is the state-owned incumbent operator that has run the country's fixed-line network and international gateways for decades.
Business model
Syrian Telecom provides fixed-line telephone and internet services and controls the international connectivity used by the mobile operators and internet providers.
Market position
Syrian Telecom is the monopoly fixed-line operator in Syria.
Country impact
Its control over the country's internet gateways has made it central both to connectivity and, historically, to the state's ability to monitor and shut down internet access, and rebuilding its war-damaged network is a basic need for Syria's recovery.
