The government of Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali was formed after appointment by the president of Syria on 23 September 2024 and new Council of Ministers took the oath of office on 24 September 2024, after the 2024 Syrian parliamentary election held on 15 July 2024. This replaced the caretaker ministry formed in July. The government was the 96th since Syria gained independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1918 and was the ninth and last during the presidency of Bashar al-Assad, as well as the last government of Ba'athist Syria.
The government was dissolved with the fall of the Assad regime on 8 December 2024. However, al-Jalali remained in office in a caretaker capacity until 10 December 2024 after agreeing to help oversee the transition of power. He then transferred power to Mohammed al-Bashir, prime minister of the Syrian Salvation Government (SSG), who subsequently lead the Syrian caretaker government.
President Bashar al-Assad accepted the entire cabinet's resignation after a meeting on 29 March 2011. Al-Assad then appointed outgoing Prime Minister Muhammad Naji al-Otari to continue as caretaker prime minister until a new government is appointed. On 3 April 2011, Assad appointed Minister of Agriculture Adel Safar the new prime minister. On 6 April 2011, the state-run al-Ekhbariya TV channel said that Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem, Minister of Defense Dawoud Rajiha, Minister of Endowment and Religious Affairs Mohammed Abdul-Sattar Al Sayed, and Minister of Presidential Palace Affairs Mansour Fadlallah Azzam would remain in the new cabinet. On 9 April 2011, DayPress News reported the new cabinet was expected to be announced in the next week. On 14 April 2011, a new cabinet was officially announced.
On 9 February 2013, President Assad changed seven ministers in the cabinet. The cabinet reshuffle included the ministries of oil, finance, social affairs, labor, housing, public works and agriculture.
In July 2016, president Assad issued Decree no. 203 for 2016 which listed the new Syrian government.
The first Hussein Arnous government was formed after 2020 Syrian parliamentary election. A new government was formed after 2021 Syrian presidential election under Hussein Arnous.
On 14 September 2024, president al-Assad issued a decree charging Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali with the task of forming a new cabinet. On 23 September 2024, president al-Assad issued a decree forming the new ministry with Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali as the head of it.
Following the fall of the Assad regime on 8 December 2024, Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali continued as caretaker prime minister pending the formation of the Syrian caretaker government.
