US Envoy alleges Israeli provocation of Turkey via Abu al-Duhur airbase strike

Former US Envoy Tom Barrack claims Israel conducted a deliberate 'baiting' strike on the Abu al-Duhur airbase to provoke Turkey during a sensitive pre-election period. The report suggests the incident nearly triggered a direct military confrontation between the two NATO/US-aligned powers, though the veracity of the 'baiting' intent remains unverified.
