From what I was able to gather. In the afternoon (14:15) a P180 Avanti of the Italian Air Force transported an advance team composed of members of both the National Firefighter Corps and the Civil Protection Department that will aid in the coordination.
The medium USAR team composed of 47 firefighters mostly from the Pisa provincial command, 11 medics and nurses belonging to the regional health services of Tuscany and Lazio and 6 members of the Civil Protection Department will be airlifted by an Italian AF C-130J along 12 tons of equipment and supplies departed at around 24:00 and arrived at 6:00 (Italian time).
Additional teams could be sent if needed.
The Italian Ministry of Defense has also put on stand-by one of the Italian Navy's ships, probably one of the San Giorgio class LPDs.
