US Envoy Barrack Accuses Israel of Unilateral Syria Strike, Igniting US-Turkey-Israel Tensions
US envoy Tom Barrack stated that Israel did not warn Washington before striking the Abu Duhur air base in Syria, calling the action an unnecessary escalation. The strike, which occurred without prior notification to the US, has intensified diplomatic friction between Israel, Turkey, and the United States. While Israel claims intelligence justified the action, US officials argue it risks broader regional conflict and undermines de-escalation efforts.
