Erdogan Escalates Tensions

Tensions between Turkey and Israel have escalated due to plans for an International Stabilization Force (ISF) in Gaza, associated with President Trump's peace plan.
The initial phase included an exchange of 20 Israeli hostages for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and a fragile ceasefire, but Hamas has resisted disarming.
