Erdogan Offers Condolences to Libya After Jet Crash
During the conversation, Erdogan “expressed his sorrow and condolences over the loss of life in the plane crash carrying Libya’s Chief of Staff, Gen. Mohammed Ali Al-Haddad, and those accompanying him,” said Burhanettin Duran.
Earlier, Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya reported that the wreckage of the Falcon 50 business jet, which departed Ankara’s Esenboga Airport bound for Tripoli, was located by gendarmerie units about 2 kilometers (1.24 miles) south of Kesikkavak in Ankara’s Haymana district.
Yerlikaya confirmed that both the black box and cockpit voice recorder were retrieved early Wednesday. He added that the process of analyzing these devices to determine the cause of the accident has already begun.
In response to the tragedy, Libya’s Government of National Unity declared three days of national mourning.
