Nato: NATO has condemned Iran's targeting of Turkiye, reaffirming its support for all member states amid rising regional tensions. NATO spokesperson Allison Hart stated that the alliance "strongly condemns Iran's targeting of Turkiye and stands firmly with all allies, including Turkiye, at a time when Iran continues what she called indiscriminate attacks in the region".

According to Qatar News Agency, Hart mentioned that NATO's deterrence and defense posture remains strong across all domains, including air and missile defense. Earlier in the day, Turkiye's defense ministry reported intercepting a ballistic missile headed towards Turkish airspace from Iran, neutralized by NATO air and missile defense units in the eastern Mediterranean.

Ankara has asserted its right to respond to the incident and emphasized its ongoing coordination with NATO and other allied countries. The situation highlights escalating tensions between Iran and several regional countries, raising concerns among Western allies about the potential for a broader conflict.
