Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned Wednesday that Israel's attacks on Syria and Lebanon have started to represent a threat to Turkey.
"Turkey's security does not begin in Hatay, but rather in Aleppo, Damascus and Beirut. We will not allow a fait accompli in our brotherly countries, and we will not turn a blind eye to any attacks targeting them," Erdogan cautioned.
He also noted that ever since its inception, Israel "has been playing a role threatening peace and security in our region."
