Envoy says Israel did not give the US notice before strikes on Syrian base

A US official, Tom Barrack, criticized Israel for not providing sufficient advance notice before conducting airstrikes on a military base in northern Syria. Barrack, serving as the US ambassador to Turkey and special envoy to Syria, claimed the strikes could have been intended to provoke Turkey, which has significant influence in the region. Israeli officials denied these claims, stating they had shared intelligence with authorized US parties beforehand. The incident highlights tensions between Israel and Turkey, with Israel accusing Turkey of expanding its regional influence and Turkey condemning the strikes as reckless. Meanwhile, the US has sought to mediate between the two nations, although the Trump administration has largely supported Israel's actions without imposing significant constraints.
