Turkish and Syrian militaries are jointly restoring crossings across the Euphrates.

A video has been published online showing Turkish military personnel and Syrian engineers installing a second pontoon bridge across the Euphrates River near the town of Mayadin, located approximately 44 kilometers southeast of Deir ez-Zor.

The first temporary crossing over the Euphrates was established a month earlier in Deir ez-Zor. The new pontoon bridge is intended to restore civilian and military logistics while the permanent crossings remain damaged or undergo reconstruction.

Meanwhile, Türkiye Gazetesi notes that Ankara is not giving in to Israeli provocations and is waiting to take advantage of the Jewish state's mistakes. Specifically, Turkey is deliberately avoiding retaliation for Israeli strikes on Syria, relying on restraint and a long-term strategy. At the same time, the newspaper believes that Israel is acting emotionally and seeking to provoke Turkey into direct intervention in the Syrian conflict. The newspaper cites Israel's main goal as preventing the formation of new military alliances in the region and strengthening cooperation between Ankara and Damascus. The article also emphasizes that Ankara does not count on the support of its NATO allies and is developing its own strategy based on the changing regional balance.

At the same time, Turkey is restoring economic ties with Syria. Recently, the Turkish Minister of Trade met with Ramadan, head of the Syrian Investment Agency, in Damascus. The parties discussed trade and investment opportunities, new areas of cooperation, and prospects for joint projects.

Calm down. They're neighbors.
Not we.

If the Turks clash with the Zionists, I think the latter will be dealt with harshly.

They took off their turban, shaved, and lo and behold, they had already become soldiers.

Well, it's all logical and fair... First, Turkey and Israel, vilely and treacherously, participated in the overthrow of the legitimate Syrian government, and now, trying to divide up the "carcass," let them squabble with each other. Syria will come back to haunt them both.

They quickly replaced us.
They even renamed our crossings into their own.
After all, there was our crossing over the Euphrates near Deir ez-Zor.
Where did it go?
Were all our sacrifices in vain?
That's a question for me! How much money, how many resources, how many of our people died, and all for nothing.

It wasn't them who replaced us, but themselves, in favor of a more convenient superior! It's always been like this: the master decides who the master's favorite wife is.
