Turkiye's Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated that Turkiye does not want confrontation with Israel in Syria after repeated Israeli attacks on military sites there. Fidan expressed concern that Israel's actions are undermining the new government's ability to deter threats and could lead to regional instability. He also mentioned that if the new administration in Damascus wants to have understandings with Israel, that is their own business. Turkiye has been critical of Israel's attacks on Gaza and has applied to join a case at the World Court against Israel while halting all trade. Fidan emphasized the need for diplomacy to resolve the dispute with Iran and stated that Turkiye does not want to see any attack on its neighbor.
