Despite widespread destruction and cold temperatures, teams of rescuers scoured the ruins for survivors around the clock since the 7.2-magnitude earthquake hit Sunday.
Turkey said it would accept international aid, citing a need for tents and prefabricated houses for the "the reconstruction phase" after the search-and-rescue efforts, according to Anadolu.
Japan was the first nation to answer the call to help with its embassy in the nation saying plans are under way to send funds, Anadolu said. Japan suffered a devastating earthquake and tsunami in March that killed thousands and triggered a nuclear crisis.
The Israeli Ministry of Defense said a plane with seven prefabricated buildings and other aid will leave for Turkey in the afternoon.
Relations between the two have been tense over last year's Israeli raid on a Gaza-bound flotilla that killed nine Turkish activists.
