At a time when Turkey is trying to convince Europeans that it is essential for the new European security architecture, war messages is sending Israel to Ankara via Syria
Response from Istanbul
Israeli aircraft launched more than 14 air raids at Hama Airport and the surrounding areas yesterday.
Air raids were also held at T4 military airport in Homs province and attacks and artillery attacks west of Daraa.
Israel’s response was that Ankara was preparing to set up a air defense base at T4 military airport near Palmyra in Homs. The news of Turkish military plans came from the well -known Middle East Eye website based in London. Indeed, the article said the base would aim for ISIS forces and would also serve to prevent Israeli air attacks in Syria.
According to Israeli sources, Israel’s message to Turkey was clear: not to create a military base in Syria and do not interfere with Israel’s activity in the Syrian airspace. The Syrian Foreign Ministry has condemned Israeli attacks on Syrian territory and called on the United Nations to take emergency measures to prevent the repetition of Tel Aviv’s government violations.
Israel seems to do everything it can to prevent a permanent presence of Turkey in Syria. Turkey and Israel relations are at a marginal point, with Ankara wanting to embrace its presence in Syria. Whether Israel will be confined to threatening moves or risk a military conflict with Turkey is something that concerns many analysts.
