A Turkish disaster response team remains stationed at the Gaza border, awaiting Israeli approval to enter and assist with search and rescue operations. The team, consisting of 81 members and equipped with specialized tools and trained dogs, has been on standby for over a week. Despite Turkiye's efforts to participate in the international peacekeeping mission and its role in the recent ceasefire agreement, Israel has not granted authorization, citing diplomatic tensions and opposition to Turkish involvement. Discussions between Turkiye and other parties continue, but Israel maintains its stance against allowing Turkish forces into Gaza due to strained relations since the start of the Gaza war.
