Turkish Airlines To Restart Kazakhstan-Turkiye Flights

First flight departed from Istanbul to Nur Sultan late Wednesday.

Turkish Airlines resumed flights between Kazakhstan and Turkiye after suspending trips for nearly two weeks because of unrest in the central Asian country.

A total of 238 passengers, four of whom were infants, were on the flight from Istanbul to the Kazakh capital of Nur-Sultan late Wednesday.

Flights to Kazakhstan's main aviation hub, Almaty Airport, which reopened Thursday, will start late Thursday.

Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev declared a state of emergency last week in response to protests about higher fuel prices.

He later requested help from the Collective Security Treaty Organization, a Russian-led military bloc, which sent troops to quell the unrest. -
