Ankara, Türkiye – September 11, 2025 – The Republic of Türkiye has issued a strong condemnation of the recent Israeli attacks targeting Syria, emphasizing the urgent need for immediate de-escalation and adherence to international law. In a statement released on September 11, 2025, under the designation “No: 177,” the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs voiced grave concerns over the repeated military actions within Syrian territory.
The statement, published on August 26, 2025, underscores Türkiye’s firm stance against any military operations that violate the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its neighbor. The ministry’s communication highlights the detrimental impact such attacks have on regional stability and the already dire humanitarian situation in Syria.
Türkiye’s position reiterates its commitment to the principles of international law and the United Nations Charter, which prohibit the use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state. The repeated Israeli incursions into Syrian airspace and territory are seen by Ankara as a serious breach of these fundamental norms.

Türkiye calls upon all parties involved to exercise restraint and to prioritize diplomatic engagement and de-escalation efforts. The statement implicitly calls for respect for Syria’s sovereignty and the urgent need for a political resolution to the ongoing crisis.
