So far, Ankara has sent 14 planes and 13 "goodness trains" loaded with relief goods, including tents, food items, medicines, kitchen items, vaccines, and other supplies to the flood-hit regions, Bozkurt added.
A 15th plane, carrying malaria pills, tetanus vaccines and other medical supplies will arrive in Pakistan on Monday as the flood victims are grappling with an outbreak of several waterborne, eye, and skin diseases, he further said.
Air Vice Marshall Afzal, for his part, thanked President Erdogan and the people of Türkiye for standing by Pakistan in this time of need.
He said the capacity of the recently established tent city will be increased to 500 tents.
"The generosity and solidarity shown by the people of Türkiye at this testing time, exemplifies the longstanding friendship between the two nations," he maintained
The drenching monsoon along with devastating floods inundated a third of Pakistan, aside from killing nearly 1,700 people and injuring tens of thousands since mid-June.
Torrential rains-10 times heavier than usual-have also damaged nearly 45% of the country's cropland, posing a serious threat to the country's food security.
The government has estimated a staggering loss of $28 billion inflicted by the catastrophe on the already tottering economy, mainly in terms of infrastructure and agriculture.
