According to the US and Turkish plans, the Pirinclik base, the closest to Syria, will play a central role in case of military action against Syria.
Although the US Department of Defense claims that the Pirinclik base was handed over to the Turkish armed forces in 1979, the base is still used as one of 24 NATO bases through Türkiye and the NATO early warning radar system.
Incirlik, another NATO airbase in Anada (southern Türkiye) also close to the Syrian border, is being used by the bloc as a command center for secret operations against Syria./.
