Mohammad Yaqoub al-Omar (Arabic: محمد يعقوب العمر) is the current Minister of Information in the Syrian Transitional Government. He had served as Minister of Information in the Syrian Salvation Government in its seventh term until December 2024.

Early life and education

Al-Omar was born in the town of Khan al-Sabil in Idlib Governorate. He holds a degree in political science and is pursuing a master’s degree in journalism and media.

Activity during the civil war

Al-Omar joined the Syrian revolution in 2011 and became active in public mobilization. From 2012 to 2019, he played a big role in covering major battles in northern Syria as a journalist.

He served as a member of the media office of the Army of Conquest and contributed to the establishment of the Media Directorate within the Syrian Salvation Government. In 2019, he co-founded the Shaam News Network, which focuses on delivering news from opposition-controlled areas.

In 2024, following the fall of the Assad regime and the decision that ministers of the salvation government will serve in the same roles in the transitional government until March 2025, al-Omar began serving as minister of information in the Syrian transitional government under prime minister Mohammed al-Bashir.
