Türkiye has sharply criticized recent Israeli military actions in southern Syria, asserting that these operations breach Syria’s sovereignty and potentially destabilize the region. According to the Turkish Foreign Ministry, the strikes, which targeted locations in the Quneitra and Daraa areas, contravene Syria’s territorial integrity and violate both international law and the 1974 Separation of Forces Agreement.
The Turkish government has expressed concern that the continuation of such attacks could exacerbate the already dire humanitarian conditions, endanger civilian lives, and hinder ongoing efforts to reestablish stability in Syria. In response to these developments, Türkiye has urged the international community to intervene, emphasizing the importance of preventing further escalations that might heighten regional tensions.
Burhanettin Duran, Türkiye’s Communications Director, added to the criticism by highlighting the detrimental impact of the strikes on Syria’s security and the pursuit of long-term peace in the area. He underscored the need for a diplomatic resolution that respects Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
In its statements, Türkiye reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Syria’s unity and territorial sovereignty as fundamental components for ensuring regional security. The call for international action reflects Türkiye’s stance that collaborative efforts are necessary to address the ongoing conflicts and bring about sustainable peace in the region.
