Following the collapse of the House of Assad, the new Syrian military has allied with Iran and Russia in an effort to gain influence in the region. NATO, led by US forces has deployed a carrier group off the coast of Turkey, aided by the USAF in Cyprus, to counter the power shift in the region.
CIA reports indicate imminent threats to NATO regional allies Israel & Jordan. As a result, NATO is planning pre-emptive strikes to deteriorate hostile military capabilities within the region. Retaliation is expected.
