\n

The Turkish government publicly denounced Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu<\/a> for allegedly pursuing “<\/span>expansionist and destabilizing policies” after Israel launched airstrikes on a Syrian airbase this week.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu’s office took responsibility for the Tuesday morning strike on the Abu al-Duhur airbase the next day, saying Syria was on the verge of breaching a security agreement by allowing Turkish troops to deploy from the base, which is near Aleppo.<\/p>\n

“Israel<\/a> repeatedly warned Syria that such a deployment would pose a threat to Israel’s security,” Netanyahu’s office said Tuesday night. “Syria chose to ignore these warnings. Israel will not tolerate threats to its security, and would welcome a return to the status quo.”<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Turkey<\/a> called these allegations from Israel “untenable,” arguing that they are intended to legitimize Israel\u2019s unlawful airstrikes targeting Syria\u2019s sovereignty and territorial integrity.”<\/p>\n

CRITICS SAY TURKEY’S VERBAL ATTACKS ON ISRAEL HAVE CROSSED INTO ANTISEMITISM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“The imputations voiced stem from Netanyahu\u2019s intent to pursue expansionist and destabilizing policies in the region ahead of the elections in Israel,” Turkey’s government said in a social media post.<\/p>\n

“T\u00fcrkiye, like the vast majority of the international community, stands for the consolidation of lasting peace in our region. The sole path to this objective lies in Netanyahu\u2019s abandonment of his aggressive and coercive policies and in his respect for international law,” it continued.<\/p>\n

“T\u00fcrkiye will resolutely continue to cooperate with the Syrian Government on a legitimate basis for the establishment of peace, stability, and prosperity in Syria, and will never allow the destabilization of Syria,” the statement concluded.<\/p>\n

TRUMP BETS ON FORMER NATO TROUBLEMAKER AS TURKEY’S STRATEGIC VALUE SURGES<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The strike on the Syrian airbase, which caused damage but no casualties, also drew criticism from U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack, despite a senior Israeli official telling Fox News that “highly sensitive intelligence was shared with the United States in advance” of the attack.<\/p>\n

“We are deeply concerned that the confirmed Israeli airstrikes on Abu al-Duhur Airbase constitute an unnecessary escalation that does not advance regional stability,” Barrack said in an X post.<\/p>\n

Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has not “adopted a predatory posture nor maintained proxy forces” and has “repeatedly indicated a preference for de-escalation with\u00a0Israel<\/a>,” Barrack added.<\/p>\n

Barrack, who is also the U.S. special envoy for Syria<\/a>, told Reuters he is working to establish a deconfliction mechanism to ease tensions between Israel, Turkey and Syria.<\/p>\n

TRUMP’S TURKEY ARMS SALE PROPOSAL SPARKS CONGRESSIONAL QUESTIONS BEFORE NATO SUMMIT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Al-Sharaa, formerly the head of Al Qaeda’s affiliate group in Syria, became the country’s new leader in January 2025 after he led rebel forces that ousted Bashar al-Assad<\/a> from power.<\/p>\n

President\u00a0Donald Trump<\/a>\u00a0has expressed strong support for al-Sharaa’s government, including by lifting broad economic sanctions on Syria in late June.<\/p>\n

But Turkey, which has been training Syria’s soldiers to rebuild the country’s armed forces, has routinely accused Israel<\/a> of trying to destabilize the region.<\/p>\n

BRIEF ALCOHOL BAN IN DAMASCUS SPARKS CONCERNS ABOUT PRESIDENT AL-SHARAA’S VISION FOR SYRIA<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Since al-Assad was deposed in December 2024, Israel has repeatedly struck targets within Syria seeking to prevent the new government from building up its military capabilities near the border.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu reiterated in July that he wants the region south of Damascus to remain demilitarized, while also professing a desire to protect the Druze population, an ethnoreligious minority that lives in Syria.<\/p>\n
