The Israel Defense Forces’ delegation of some 150 search and rescue experts of the Home Front Command landed early Tuesday. The IDF is also sending a second delegation, of 230 people, to establish a field hospital in the area.
Overnight Tuesday, the IDF said Home Front Command teams managed to rescue a young woman and a boy trapped under rubble in separate areas in Kahramanmaraş.
