It's in ASIA, they are both in the Middle East and Levant regions.
The Middle East is a historical and political region of Africa-Eurasia with no clear definition. The Levant is an imprecise geographical term historically referring to a large area in the Middle East south of the Taurus Mountains, bounded by the Mediterranean Sea on the west, and by the northern Arabian Desert and Upper Mesopotamia to the east.

Actually, they are in Asia. Middle East is a term given to countries that are more westerly in Asia than India, China or Japan. The "Levant" is an old term which apparently has no geographical basis.

Asia. Turkey is the tough one to consider. It is a current problem for them in geopolitics too.
