\r\n\tIsrael’s recent airstrikes in Syria were carried out to “send a clear message to Turkey,” an Israeli official told The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday<\/strong><\/p>

The message, the source said, is simple<\/b><\/p>

\r\n “Do not create a military base in Syria and do not interfere with Israel’s activities in the skies over the country.”\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThe strikes hit areas near the city of Hama and also a scientific research building in the Barzeh neighborhood of the capital Damascus, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed on the same day.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nFor many years, during the rule of former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Israel carried out airstrikes in Syria.<\/p>

\r\nThe aim, the Israelis said, was to hit military facilities linked to Iran and prevent the transfer of weapons from Tehran (the capital of Iran) to the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah.<\/p>

\r\nAccording to Israeli media, the Israeli air force has now targeted infrastructure and weapons left over from Assad’s army.<\/p>

\r\nTurkey criticizes Israel’s expansion of operations in Gaza<\/p>

\r\nTurkey recently criticized Israel for announcing a major expansion of its military operation in Gaza.<\/p>

\r\nThe Turkish government says this decision shows what it calls “Israel’s illegal attitude, which completely ignores the pursuit of peace.”<\/p>

\r\nIn a statement, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said that Israel’s plans to expand operations in Gaza and expand settlements in the Judea-Samaria (Israeli-occupied territory) are “further proof of Israel’s disregard for international law and its complete lack of interest in seeking peace.”<\/p>

\r\nTurkey called on the international community to take a firm stand to protect holy sites, avoid provocations and prevent Israel from further expanding its territory through occupation.<\/p>
