Turkey searches another Armenian plane en route to Syria

Turkey has ordered an Armenian aircraft flying to Syria to land and searched its cargo on Thursday, reported Reuters, citing Turkish media reports.

This is the second such move by Ankara in a month designed to prevent its airspace being used to supply the Syrian military.

Armenia said the cargo plane was searched on Thursday in the eastern Turkish city of Erzurum in a previously agreed step, as in mid-October when another Armenian plane was allowed to continue its journey after confirmation it was carrying humanitarian aid as stated.
