Middle East Eye: Türkiye is trying to take control of the Syrian air base T4

Türkiye is trying to take control of the Syrian air base “Tias” (T4) and is preparing to place air defense systems there, reports Middle East Eye with reference to informed sources. The publication says that construction work is already planned at the facility.

It should be noted that we are talking about an air base, according to which in recent months, after the fall of the Bashar al -Assad regime, the IDF Air Force has repeatedly struck.

The new Syrian authorities are counting on the help of Turkey in ensuring the air cover and military protection of the new government of Syria, which currently does not have existing armed forces, the publication is noted.

Israel considers the Turkish military presence in Syria as a potential threat.
