In a recent development that has heightened tensions in the Middle East, Israel has conducted strikes on Syrian bases that were previously scoped by Turkey, according to sources cited by US News. The strikes have sparked concerns of a potential regional showdown, with both nations having strategic interests in Syria.
Turkey's Foreign Minister has responded to the situation, emphasizing that Ankara is not seeking confrontation with Israel in Syria.
