Turkiye's parliament has renewed the country's military deployment mandates in Syria and Iraq for three more years, and in Lebanon under the United Nations Interim Force for two years. The Turkish Defense Ministry announced that its peacekeeping forces will continue supporting the Lebanese army's capacity building, aiming to maintain peace and stability in Lebanon. The renewed mandates also focus on preserving Turkiye's national security and addressing ongoing security challenges posed by armed groups in neighboring regions. Turkiye has expressed frustration over stalled integration efforts involving Kurdish-led forces in Syria and reiterated its concerns about regional security threats.
