Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan has warned that Israel may be looking for an opportunity to strike Iran. He stated that such a strike could increase tensions in the Middle East and destabilize the region further.
Speaking to Turkish broadcaster NTV on Friday, Fidan said, “I hope they find a different path, but the reality is that Israel, in particular, is looking for an opportunity to strike Iran.” He emphasized that diplomatic efforts should be prioritized to avoid military escalation.
Fidan’s comments come amid ongoing regional tensions, with Iran continuing its nuclear program and Israel maintaining its security concerns. Analysts say any strike against Iran could trigger a wider conflict, affecting neighboring countries and international trade routes.
The Turkish Foreign Minister highlighted the importance of dialogue and international cooperation. He called on all parties to exercise restraint and seek peaceful solutions rather than military action. Fidan added that Turkey continues to monitor the situation closely while engaging in diplomatic channels with both Israel and Iran.
Experts have noted that a strike on Iran could lead to retaliatory measures and increased instability. International bodies have urged calm, stressing that military action should be avoided to prevent escalation.
Fidan also urged global powers to encourage negotiation and conflict resolution. He said a proactive approach could reduce the risk of a strike and its devastating consequences.
The warning from Turkey’s FM reflects the fragile security situation in the Middle East. While no immediate strike has been reported, regional actors remain on high alert, and diplomatic efforts are ongoing to prevent military confrontation.
