We have been covering at CDM the growing possibility of a conflict between Sunni Turkey and The Jewish State.
Jerusalem is concerned about Turkish military moving assets into northern, central and western Syria to confront Israeli air supremacy over the region. With the Assad government removed, Iranian influence in Syria is lessened but the Islamist jihadi element is now in power.
Elements of the Turkish Armed Forces reportedly arrived today at the T-4 Air Base and Palmyra Military Airfield in the Homs Governorate of central Syria, which both were targeted recently by the Israeli Air Force, reported Israeli journalist Amir Tsarfati.
According to senior Turkish defense officials, S-400 and Hisar-O+ surface-to-air missile batteries will be deployed to the bases alongside long-range strike drones, as Turkey plans to increase strikes against ISIS and to deter further strikes against Syria by Israel.
Why was the Iranian presence in Syria much easier threat for Israel to handle than a potential Turkish one? An attack on any Turkish weapons would likely prompt Turkey to demand the invocation of Article 5 of the NATO Charter, which states that an attack on one member is considered an attack on all members, add Tsarfati on his Telegram channel.
