Turkey has made it clear that it is interested in mending its relationship with Israel, but that sentiment might not be shared in Tel Aviv.

This changed when Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced he would like to see the relationship fixed, prompting Israel’s Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi to convene a cabinet meeting on whether to follow up on this, according to anonymous Israeli officials speaking to Axios.
This was, in some ways, the closest glimpse into whether or not Israel would take Erdoğan up on fixing what was once a close partnership. However, an assessment on its own does not provide a clear enough signal that Israel is ready to take further steps on the normalisation tract.
