The identities of the two women who ran onto the apron at Moscow Sheremetyevo Airport, chasing after a plane preparing for takeoff to catch their flight, and the reason for their attempt, have been revealed. It was learned that the women, identified as Turkish, were trying not to miss their flight to attend their sister's wedding in Bodrum. However, their last-minute move onto the apron did not work; as the plane took off, the women were detained and fined.

It was revealed that the two women who ran onto the apron chasing an Aeroflot plane preparing for departure at Moscow Sheremetyevo Airport in an attempt to catch it are Turkish. The women were trying to board the plane to make it to a wedding in Turkey.

The story behind the extraordinary incident at Sheremetyevo Airport in Moscow, the capital of Russia, has come to light.

On July 25, two women who missed an Aeroflot plane entered the airport apron to catch the plane preparing for departure, as if they were trying to catch a bus they had missed. Running with their luggage toward the area where the plane was, the women tried to stop the aircraft.

Those moments were recorded by cameras in the area.

THEY RAN AFTER THE PLANE

The two women ran toward the aircraft, which was being pushed back for departure, and continued alongside it for a while.

The women's attempt to catch the plane ended with intervention by airport personnel. Security guards and police removed the women from the apron and took them off the field.

The women were not allowed to board the plane. The Aeroflot aircraft departed from the airport shortly after. It was reported that the women were detained and faced a fine after the incident.

THEY WERE ACTUALLY TRYING TO MAKE IT TO A WEDDING

A new detail has emerged about the women, whose reason for such an attempt was unknown in the initial footage.

It was learned that the women are Turkish and were trying to reach a wedding to be held in Turkey. One of the women later stated in a statement that the wedding was to take place in Bodrum.

THEY COULDN'T MAKE IT TO THEIR SISTER'S BIG DAY

However, despite all their efforts, the women's plan did not come to fruition.

Although they entered the apron and ran after the plane, the Aeroflot aircraft did not stop, and the women missed the flight. Their journey to attend their sister's wedding in Bodrum was interrupted by the extraordinary incident at the airport.

After the incident, the women were removed from the apron by security forces, and legal action was taken against them for violating airport security rules.
