Turkey On HIGH Alert: Syria SHUTS Border With Turkey As Massive Wildfires Rage Just 4KM From Border
Syria has shut the Kassab border crossing with Turkey as massive wildfires edge dangerously close to the Turkish province of Hatay.
Sparked amid severe drought and recent sectarian unrest, the fires have destroyed swathes of Syriaâs green belt and now threaten cross-border regions.
Firefighters from Turkey, Jordan, and Iraq joined Syrian civil defense teams to battle the blaze.
With Attera burning just 4 km from the Turkish border, Ankara is on high alert.
Officials say the spread is due to extreme heat and windânot arson.

As the Middle East teeters on the edge of wider conflict, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a high-stakes phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The Kremlin confirmed that Putin underscored Russiaâs commitment to peaceful solutions amid escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. In a bold diplomatic move, Moscow offered to mediate stalled nuclear negotiations involving Tehran, positioning itself as a central figure in the crisis.
Notably, Putin warned against any actions that may compromise Syriaâs sovereignty, stressing the need to respect the nation's territorial integrity and internal political stability. This conversation comes at a time when military strikes, political instability, and nuclear fears are threatening to ignite a broader regional war. With Syria caught in the crossfire and international alliances under strain, the Putin-Netanyahu call may signal a renewed effort to de-escalate before itâs too late.

Israel faces mounting global condemnation over its military campaign in Gaza, accused of using starvation tactics and blocking aid. Despite backlash, Prime Minister Netanyahu has doubled down, vowing to continue operations until Hamas is fully eliminated. With over 20,000 Hamas fighters reportedly still active and Israeli casualties rising, the war grinds on. Europe and human rights groups have urged Israel and the U.S. to halt the blockade, but Netanyahu, speaking from Ramon Air Base, insists on seeing through what he calls Israel's âwar goals.â Gazaâs humanitarian crisis deepens.

CCTV footage from the Handala aid ship shows Israeli soldiers breaking cameras during a midnight raid in international waters. The Gaza-bound vessel, carrying baby formula, food, and medicine for starving civilians, was intercepted 40 nautical miles from Gaza. Israeli forces detained 21 international activists and journalists, seizing all aid cargo. This marks the second ship blocked in recent months, amid rising global outrage over Gazaâs worsening humanitarian crisis. Cameras and communications were cut before the vessel was escorted back to shore, deepening calls for accountability.

Turkey has officially entered the Syrian civil war after Damascus requested assistance to combat terror groups and stabilize the south. Ankara will provide military training, consultancy, and armoured vehicles to support Syrian forces. This comes amid escalating Druze-Bedouin violence in Sweida and Israeli airstrikes targeting Syrian military assets. Turkeyâs move, framed as a push for regional stability, heightens fears of a broader confrontation with Israel. Ankara backs Syriaâs sovereignty while accusing Israeli actions of destabilizing southern Syria and provoking wider conflict.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed that critical Russia-Ukraine peace talks are set for Wednesday in Turkey. As the war drags on and battlefield realities shift, questions loom large over what Zelensky might concedeâand what Moscow might demand.

The world watches anxiously: Will this be a real step toward peace or just another failed negotiation? All eyes now turn to Ankara as Western allies grow restless, humanitarian crises deepen, and Ukraine faces increasing pressure to admit the truth about the shifting balance on the ground.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip ErdoÄan has condemned Israelâs strikes on Iran as a reckless provocation that violates international law and risks igniting a global catastrophe. Calling it a âstrategy of bloodshed,â ErdoÄan warned Netanyahuâs government is sabotaging diplomatic efforts over Iranâs nuclear program to sustain regional chaos. Turkeyâs foreign ministry echoed the alarm, demanding urgent global action to prevent further escalation. As Ankara joins the growing chorus of condemnation, fears rise over a widening West Asia conflict and potential global fallout.

France has launched an airdrop mission delivering 40 tonnes of emergency food aid into Gaza, in a dramatic response to an escalating famine crisis in the embattled Strip. Each of the four flights carried 10 tonnes of supplies, Foreign Minister JeanâNoĂ«l Barrot confirmedâthough he warned the gesture remains âinsufficient.â
Barrot and President Macron demanded that Israel quickly reopen air, land, and sea routes to allow unhindered aid access, calling current conditions âabsolutely intolerable.â A recent WHO report showed that since July, 5,000 children under five have been treated for acute malnutrition, and at least 63 have died of starvation. The move follows weeks of humanitarian pauses and airdrops by allies including Jordan, the UAE, Germany, and the UKâbut global agencies warn only sustained land convoys can truly meet the desperate needs. Against the backdrop of rising international pressure and US envoy visits, Franceâs action adds fresh urgency to the crisis.
