NATO
officials will start surveying sites along the Turkey-Syria border on
Tuesday, November 27, 2012, for possible deployment of Patriot
air defense systems, the Turkish General Staff said in a statement. The
NATO delegation includes 30 experts from the United States, Germany and
the Netherlands, all of whom have Patriots in their arsenals. |

The
Turkish General Staff said that the Patriot
missile systems will not be used to establish a no-fly zone or to conduct
offensive operations, but only “against an air or missile threat
from Syria,” the Hurriyet daily said, citing the statement. |
