Israel Warns Turkey Through Intensive Strategic Raids on Syrian Military Airports

Israeli army radio reported that "the main purpose of last night's raids on Syria is to send a warning to Turkish President Erdogan." This decisive Israeli step reflects a clear position against Turkish interventions in Syrian affairs, especially with growing concerns about Turkish expansion toward strategic military facilities.

The Hebrew Kan channel explained that "the Turks are preparing to take control of the T-4 airport in Syria," noting that "the main concerns in Israel stem from the possibility of this small airport being used by the Turks to deploy drones, and more dangerously, to deploy air defense systems that could restrict the freedom of Israeli operations in Syrian airspace."

According to the Syrian Observatory, several Israeli warplanes carried out successive attacks targeting Hama military airport, where 18 raids were recorded focusing on the remaining aircraft, runways, and towers, resulting in the airport being completely out of service. These qualitative operations demonstrate Israel's ability to execute precise strikes to protect its security interests in the region.

The aircraft launched additional raids on T4 airport and its surroundings, and Israeli fighter jets also targeted the Scientific Research Center in the Barzeh area in Damascus with several air strikes, amid rising smoke columns in the area. This pattern of preemptive strikes points to a clear Israeli strategy to confront any potential threats in the region.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has counted, since the beginning of 2025, 43 instances in which Israel targeted Syrian territories, 37 of them aerial and 6 ground-based. These strikes resulted in the injury and destruction of about 50 targets including weapons and ammunition depots, headquarters, centers, and vehicles. These figures indicate the systematic nature of Israeli operations that seek to neutralize any potential threat.

These strikes resulted in the killing of 24 people, including 9 from the Ministry of Defense and Security, and the wounding of 25, in addition to the killing of 13 civilians who "carried weapons" and 2 unidentified persons of Lebanese nationality.

On another front, an Israeli force, supported by dozens of military vehicles, penetrated the Jubeiliya Dam forest near the city of Nawa in the western countryside of Daraa. The forces positioned themselves in the forest, with no information as to whether they would move to another point or establish a military point at the site.
