Operation Dost (Operation Friend) was the search and rescue operation initiated by the Government of India to aid Syria and Turkey, after the 2023 Turkey–Syria earthquakes devastated both countries on 6 February 2023. The epicenter was 37 km west of Gaziantep, Turkey.
'Dost' means 'friend' in both Hindi and Turkish.

Anguished by the loss of lives and damage of property due to the earthquake in Turkey. Condolences to the bereaved families. May the injured recover soon. India stands in solidarity with the people of Turkey and is ready to offer all possible assistance to cope with this tragedy.
A few hours later, Modi sent additional condolences and offers of assistance to Syria:
Deeply pained to learn that the devastating earthquake has also affected Syria. My sincere condolences to the families of the victims. We share the grief of Syrian people and remain committed to provide assistance and support in this difficult time.
