NATO to hold emergency meeting at Turkey's request to discuss escalation in Idlib – secretary general
Representatives of NATO members will hold an emergency meeting after Turkey called for consultations following the deaths of its soldiers in Idlib province, alliance chief Jens Stoltenberg has said.
The meeting has been called under Article 4, which allows any member to request consultations with other allies when they feel that their "territorial integrity, political independence or security is threatened," the short message explained.
This comes after 33 Turkish soldiers were killed and some others were injured during an airstrike in the Syrian province of Idlib.
