Turkey has officially slammed Israel for its recent airstrikes on a Syrian air base, labeling the Israeli government's justification for the attack as 'untenable'.
The strikes occurred just hours after a Turkish diplomatic delegation visited the site, leading to heightened tensions between Ankara and Tel Aviv regarding regional military presence.
US officials have expressed frustration over the escalation, with reports suggesting that the Biden administration is seeking to de-escalate the situation to prevent a wider conflict in Syria.
