Israel and Turkey are engaged in escalating tensions over Syria, with Turkey criticizing Israeli military actions and Israel rejecting Turkish accusations. The rift between the two nations has raised concerns over regional stability and the fate of U.S.-backed Kurdish forces fighting ISIS. The Israeli Prime Minister declared the 1974 Disengagement Agreement void, arguing that it no longer applied after forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad abandoned their positions. The sharp exchange reflects a new low in bilateral relations, with Turkey imposing a complete trade ban on Israel and Turkey's President urging Islamic nations to unite against Israel. Analysts warn that clashes between Turkey and Israel could become unavoidable as Turkey deepens its presence in Syria.
