After last week’s devastating earthquake in southern Turkey, Foreign Minister Eli Cohen will pay a solidarity visit to the country in the near future.

He will meet not only his Turkish counterpart Mevlut Cavusoglu, but also President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, ministry sources tell The Times of Israel.

Israel sent rescue teams and a field hospital to the stricken region.
