Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused Israel of attempting to destabilize Syria by inciting divisions among ethnic and religious groups, thereby undermining the December 8 revolution that removed Bashar al-Assad. Turkey supports Syria’s new leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, and has initiated talks with Israel to manage tensions despite ongoing military actions in Syria. Erdogan criticized Israel’s recent air strikes, labeling them as barbaric, and reaffirmed Turkey’s commitment to aiding Syrian reconstruction and opposing any further instability in the region.
