"Israeli diplomats are not in Türkiye at the moment. As of October 19, they had already departed from our country," the sources noted, adding that in a note sent on October 18 to the Turkish Foreign Ministry the diplomats at the embassy had informed officials that because of recent developments, they would leave the country on October 19.

Recent media reports, citing Israeli sources, suggested that Israeli diplomats, including Ambassador Irit Lillian, left Türkiye due to security concerns rather than a diplomatic crisis.
