US envoy Tom Barrack says Türkiye was not warned in advance of Israeli strikes on Syria's Abu al-Duhur airbase near the Turkish border and, after detecting Israeli aircraft heading toward its territory, "could have reasonably prepared its own response." "Thankfully, calm heads were able to prevent the situation from deteriorating further," he said. Source: Reuters

An Israeli official claims that the attack on the Syrian air base in the Idlib region was intended to prevent a Turkish military buildup there. A Turkish official says in response: "There was no Turkish presence at the air base."

US Ambassador to Iraq and Syria Tom Barrack: We are deeply concerned by confirmed Israeli airstrikes on Abu al-Duhur Air Base, which constitute an unnecessary escalation that does not contribute to regional stability. The Shar'a government has not adopted an aggressive stance, nor has it maintained proxy forces. On the contrary, it has repeatedly expressed its preference for de-escalation with Israel. The United States has hosted, and will continue to host, dialogues to encourage diplomatic engagement rather than resorting to military violence, which only serves to frustrate both countries. Lasting de-escalation agreements are built through ongoing dialogue with all relevant states and parties. The United States continues to believe that restraint and dialogue are the most constructive path forward. We encourage all parties to prioritize reasoned dialogue over further military incidents.
