Abstract: The protests in Syria, which started in 2011, first turned into a civil war and then into a global issue, and still continues to have regional and global effects. The crisis has caused deep concerns for many countries, including Turkey and Israel. The crisis has had deep impact on the relations of Turkey and Israel. Historically, Turkey-Israel relations have followed a course of ups and downs in the context of their national interests. The major question of this study is whether the Syrian civil war, which is a neighbour of the two countries, has had an impact on the shaky relations between Turkey and Israel. The relations between the two countries have entered a normalization process due to the common interests in the Syria region. The ‘Syrian crisis’ has a strategic collaborative potential in terms of improving Turkey-Israel relations. The ongoing Syrian crisis maintains its currency and importance as a determining factor for the future development of relations between Turkey and Israel. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate Turkey-Israel relations in the context of the Syrian crisis.

Keywords: Syrian civil war, Turkey, Israel, national security, regional cooperation.
