Erdogan insists on sending troops to Gaza: “We are not deterred by Israel”
An Arab diplomat from one of the mediating countries said Thursday that Israel’s opposition to including Turkish forces in an international mission in Gaza is not deterring Ankara. He said President Erdoğan believes most countries remain reluctant to send troops despite U.S. requests, and expects that President Trump will eventually need Turkish forces and ease Israel’s objections.
According to the diplomat, Turkey is already training about 2,000 soldiers for a possible deployment, as reported by Middle East Eye. Some Arab states are also quietly wary of a Turkish military presence in Gaza.
