Syria Foreign Minister Abu al-Duhur

Syria's foreign minister says Damascus told Israel there were no Turkish forces at the Abu al-Duhur airbase before the bombing. The official adds that Syrian officials described events at the site to Israeli counterparts over several days beforehand, asserting the base remains under Syrian sovereignty with no permanent Turkish presence planned. He describes the Abu al-Duhur site as largely empty, being rehabilitated after war damage, and intended for Syria's own air force. Turkish officers visited the site days earlier, which the foreign minister characterizes as routine training cooperation similar to arrangements with Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Qatar, and Russia. In contrast, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu claims his warning was delivered but ignored, stating the message was clear and Syria did not fully understand it. Former US President Trump declined to criticize the strike or specify if his briefing occurred before or after the event. Axios is the source of the report, with Daniel as the writer.
