Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says the black box of a military plane that crashed in Georgia has been found.

He said an investigation has been launched.

“The black box of our plane has been found and investigations have begun. We have found 19 bodies of the deceased. The search for the last body continues. During this process, we first spoke with Azerbaijani President Aliyev and then with Georgian Prime Minister Kobakhidze,” Erdogan said.

For information, on November 11, a Turkish military plane crashed in the Sighnaghi municipality, approximately 5 kilometers from the Georgian state border. The plane is said to be flying from Azerbaijan to Turkey. The Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs has launched an investigation into the incident under Article 275, Part 4 of the Criminal Code, which refers to the violation of the safety or operation rules of air transport, which resulted in the loss of human life.
