    Israel's Strike on Syria Nearly Sparked War with Turkey

    Ambassador Tom Barrack revealed details of Israel's attack on a Syrian airbase that nearly led to war with Turkey. Israel acted on intelligence suggesting Turkey was moving military assets into Syria, despite the US confirming no such movement. Israel launched the strike without informing the US or Turkey, putting Turkey on high alert as Israeli jets approached its border. Turkey considered scrambling its jets but ultimately chose not to. Barrack suggested Israel may have been 'baiting the Turks' or there was a breakdown in communication between Israeli military and political leadership.
