Flights suspended at Turkey’s Izmir airport due to nearby wildfire

19-07-2024 11:14

A wildfire that broke out in a forested area near Turkey’s Izmir airport forced the airport to shut down and flights were diverted to nearby cities, budget carrier Pegasus said, writes Reuters.

Pegasus said the Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport had been closed temporarily and its inbound flights were diverted to and landed at Bodrum Airport, in a statement on social media platform X.

Turkey dispatched 7 planes and 16 helicopters to fight the fire, along with 35 fire trucks, a local governor’s office said.
