        "summary": "Turkey has called on Iran to refrain from further escalation in the Middle East following the destruction of another Iranian ballistic missile in Turkish airspace by NATO forces, with Turkish officials warning that repeated incidents could trigger a dangerous regional conflict. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated that whilst Turkey does not provoke easily and is prepared to defend its airspace, the country has cautioned Iran that a recurrence of such incidents would be treated as a deliberate act rather than a stray missile.",
