MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli made a striking statement regarding the plane crash that occurred while transporting the Libyan military delegation in Ankara. Bahçeli stated, "The plane crash that occurred during a period when sincere and close dialogues between Turkey and Libya have increased, and mutual rights and interests are defended in coordination, is both thought-provoking and extremely saddening."

Radar connection was lost last night with a Falcon 50 type private business jet that took off from Ankara Esenboğa Airport to Tripoli. It has been learned that there were 8 people on board, including the Chief of General Staff of Libya, and the wreckage of the crashed jet has been reached. It was reported that shortly after takeoff, an electrical failure occurred in the jet, and after the pilots informed the tower, they attempted to return but crashed in Haymana before being able to land in Esenboğa. Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya announced that the voice recorder of the crashed plane was found at 02:45 and the black box at 03:20.
