The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) (Arabic: الوكالة العربية السورية للأنباء (سانا), al-Wakālah al-ʿArabīyah as-Sūrīyah lil-ʾAnbāʾ (SĀNĀ)) is a Syrian state-owned news agency, linked to the country's ministry of information. It was established in June 1965.[2]

SANA publishes more than 500 news stories and 150 photos on a daily basis and operates in multiple languages: Arabic, English, French, Spanish, Turkish, Persian and Russian. The agency is also a member of the Federation of Arab News Agencies (FANA).[3][4]

On 9 December 2024, after the fall of Assad regime, SANA rebranded its logo with the three red stars of the Syrian independence flag.[5]
