US working on deconfliction mechanism among Turkey, Israel and Syria, US envoy says
Tom Barrack said the channel would help prevent misunderstandings after Israel struck a Syrian airbase near Turkey, with no casualties reported, officials said.
- On Tuesday, U.S. special envoy for Syria Thomas Barrack announced efforts to establish a deconfliction mechanism among Israel, Turkey, and Syria to prevent accidental military confrontation between the regional actors.
- Israel launched eight airstrikes on the Abu al-Duhur airbase in Idlib, Syria, on Tuesday, targeting runways and storage facilities with no reported casualties.
- Israeli officials reportedly targeted the base due to concerns regarding Turkish rehabilitation efforts, which Israel views as potential threats to its air superiority and efforts to curb Iranian influence.
- Turkey condemned the strikes but withheld further comment, while Barrack noted the nation received no warning and could have reasonably prepared a military response.
- Barrack emphasized the need for robust communication architecture, arguing that investing in such mechanisms is far less costly than relying on kinetic methods of communication.
