A Pegasus Airlines plane skidded off a wet runway at Istanbul’s Sabiha Gokcen airport, breaking into three pieces after landing.
The incident tragically resulted in three fatalities and 179 injuries among the 183 people aboard the flight from Izmir.
Poor weather conditions, specifically heavy tailwinds, were cited as the cause for the plane's inability to hold the runway, skidding 50-60 meters and dropping 30-40 meters.
Emergency services evacuated passengers, with the wounded treated at 18 nearby hospitals; the runway was temporarily closed, diverting flights before reopening.
