Israel Turkey

The plan allowing residents of the Gaza Strip to fly to Turkey from an Israeli airport is raising concerns about its practicality, cost-effectiveness, and potential risk for arrests.

In the current Turkish political reality, Erdogan – despite all his anti-Israel and antisemitic baggage – has both the capacity and the motivation to deliver healthier Ankara-Jerusalem ties.

With Erdogan now in office for another five years and possibly longer, the expectation in Jerusalem is that it is only a matter of time before he invites Netanyahu for a visit to Ankara.

Voters across Turkey expressed a range of emotions as election results rolled in, leaning in favor of another five years of Erdogan.

Thanking Erdogan for his call, Herzog emphasized that Israel remains firmly committed to preserving freedom of worship on Temple Mount.

"We expect the regime to go and we will fight for it. We have high hopes for the election. Our peoples are standing together in all their colors," a political activist said.

'Mixed feelings of hope and sadness:’ The IDF has saved 13 victims of the earthquake that has claimed over 20,000 lives in Turkey.

450 Turkish companies met top Israeli companies’ representative for B-to-B meetings, emphasizing the momentum of enhancing trade relations between the two countries.

The increase in tourism between the two former adversaries has flourished in recent years after a decade of fraught ties.

The next Israeli government is likely to continue the Lebanon maritime deal as well as keep the ties with Turkey.
