Iran did not attack Turkey
However, till now there has been no retaliatory attack from Iran on Turkey, even though American soldiers are deployed at many of its bases there. Incirlik Air Base is an important NATO center, which has been used by American soldiers for years. Its distance from Adana city of Türkiye is only 10 kilometers.
On March 9, the US Embassy posted on the social media platform X and ordered American citizens living in south-eastern Türkiye to evacuate. “On March 9, 2026, the US State Department ordered non-emergency US government employees and their family members to leave the Consulate General in Adana due to security risks,” the post said.
