The system primarily aims to protect Turkish soil from potential missile threats from neighboring Syria. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> A Turkish military official said <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">that <\/span>the Spanish Patriots, stationed to counter ballistic missile threats, would be kept at the Turkish base for about a year. Some 150 Spanish soldiers also will be stationed in Turkey to operate the system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spain said last September that it would replace the Netherlands in the NATO mission designed to protect Turkey&#8217;s southern border. Turkey has had Patriot missiles stationed in the southern provinces of Gaziantep, Kahramanmara\u015f and Adana since December 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Six Patriot batteries were sent to Turkey by the US, the Netherlands and Germany as part of a NATO decision to boost Turkey&#8217;s air defenses against a potential Syrian missile attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The alliance has deployed Patriot surface-to-air missiles to Turkey twice before, once in 1991 and later in 2003, during both gulf wars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
