Israel seeks to ease Turkey tensions
The Israeli broadcasting authority quoted a security source as saying that Israel aims to maintain its relations with Turkey and not turn them into an enemy. It has been engaging through secret communication channels to prevent escalation. This came after Israel carried out airstrikes on the "Abu al-Zuhur" base in Syria, in response to Turkey's attempt to deploy troops in the area, which led to tensions between the two countries and rejection from the United States. The source confirmed that Israel has set red lines regarding Turkish military presence in Syria, especially concerning air defense systems and drones, and that it targeted sites at Abu al-Zuhur airport before equipment arrived. Additionally, opposition leader Yair Lapid noted that the attack was justified but warned against unnecessary escalation with Turkey, emphasizing the importance of stability in Syria for Israel’s interests.
