⚡️🇮🇱🇸🇾🇹🇷 — INSS Urges Israel to Define Limited Red Lines on Turkish Presence in Syria to Avoid Escalation, According to THEJERUSALEM POST.

​➡️ A report by Israel’s Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), authored by Carmit Valensi and Amal Hayek, warns that Jerusalem’s current military posture in Syria—including strikes on emerging Turkish assets like the Abu al-Duhur base—risks triggering direct regional confrontation and alienating Western allies. The think tank recommends distinguishing between technical support for Damascus and independent Turkish command-and-control infrastructure. It argues that Turkish radar, electronic warfare, or air defense systems in northern Syria do not pose a unique operational threat requiring Israeli strikes, and urges Israel to focus its red lines strictly on preventing Turkish or proxy entrenchment in central and southern Syria near the Israeli border.

​➡️ The INSS highlights that continuing an aggressive, unilateral posture without opening diplomatic dialogue with the new Syrian administration under President Ahmad al-Sharaa could backfire, forcing Damascus into deeper reliance on Ankara. Furthermore, as the Syrian government gains international legitimacy and draws closer to Gulf states and Washington, persistent Israeli strikes without clear strategic objectives risk incurring severe political pressure from the Trump administration—potentially forcing an uncompensated Israeli withdrawal from its southern buffer zone.
