Turkish warships have been approaching Israeli Navy vessels in the Eastern Mediterranean and — according to Israeli broadcaster Kan — ordering them to change their routes in international waters. No shots have been fired. But Israel has raised its naval alert level and is conducting its largest drills in years. The US is working to establish a deconfliction mechanism between the two countries. We explain what Turkey is doing, why it is doing it, and why a naval confrontation between two of the Middle East’s most powerful militaries is a serious risk. Cary Johnston brings you the details on Firstpost America.
