๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑโŒ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พไธ€ A senior Israeli intelligence official to JP:

  • Unless Israel draws clear red lines in Syria and the Mediterranean, the Turkish army and navy will further encroach on Israel's northern and maritime borders.

  • Israel could find itself facing Turkish tanks on the Golan Heights and Turkish warships off the coast of Kayseri.
