November 13, Colombo (LNW): Sri Lanka’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Employment, and Tourism, Vijitha Herath, has conveyed his deep sympathies to the Government and people of Türkiye following the fatal crash of a Turkish military aircraft in Georgia earlier this week.

Posting on X, Minister Herath wrote:
“Heartfelt condolences to the Government and people of Türkiye on the tragic loss of military personnel in Georgia. Sri Lanka stands with Türkiye in this time of sorrow.”

The Turkish government confirmed that 20 service members were killed when a C-130 transport aircraft went down while travelling from Azerbaijan to Türkiye on Tuesday. It is the country’s deadliest military aviation disaster since 2020.

Georgian rescue teams, working alongside Turkish officials, have since recovered nearly all the victims’ remains from the crash site, located on a remote hillside.
