The Israeli Prime Minister's Office issued a statement on the evening of the 18th confirming that the Israeli army attacked an air base in Syria that day and accusing Syria of permitting Turkey to deploy troops in Syria as a threat to Israel. The Turkish side refuted on the 19th that Israel's rhetoric was aimed at “legalizing” air strikes against Syria. The Israeli prime minister's office said in a statement that Israel and Syria have agreed to “maintain the status quo” on security issues, but Syria intends to violate these principles and allow the Turkish military to be deployed at an air base near Aleppo in Syria. Israel has warned Syria many times about this.
