DEBKAfile
War fever in and around Syria after Syrian President Bashar Assad’s speech Monday, June 20, sparked riots by disappointed protesters in Damascus and Latakia.
Our military sources checked reports from Cypriot aviation sources that Syria had closed its airspace to civilian traffic and found its skies were still open.
According to other sources, some Iranian, Turkish military helicopters are infiltrating northern Syria on reconnaissance missions.
Arab sources report NATO is planning to fly extra troops from Spanish and Germany bases to the Izmir Air base in western Turkey to expand the current number of 400. Damascus accuses Turkey of seeking to seize Syrian territory on the pretext of providing a buffer zone for Syrian refugees.
