Israel carried out airstrikes on the Abu al-Zuhur airbase in Syria, citing Turkey's deployment of troops as a security threat. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu warned that he would not tolerate Turkey's military buildup, but Turkey condemned Israel's airstrikes as illegal and emphasized the protection of Syrian sovereignty. The United States urged both sides to exercise restraint and argued that physical clashes should be prevented through diplomatic dialogue. This incident has created a new tension in the Middle East, highlighting the importance of the US's mediating role.
