The World Bank said on Thursday that it is providing Türkiye with $1.78 billion in relief and recovery financing assistance, as the country struggles with the aftermath of a deadly earthquake.

The bank stated that $780 million will be diverted for immediate relief from two of its existing loan projects in Türkiye, while the remainder is being prepared for reconstruction financing, but will take more time to arrange.
