Avion iranian cu pasageri la bord, sechestrat pe aeroportul din Istanbul pentru o datorie de 3 milioane de euro

A Boeing 737 from Caspian Airlines was seized at Istanbul Airport due to a debt of approximately 3 million euros. Passengers were on board when court officials presented the seizure order, leading to their removal from the aircraft. The airline, based in Tehran, has faced challenges due to U.S. sanctions affecting Iranian carriers. New sanctions were imposed shortly before the seizure, impacting international flights and leading to suspensions by several airlines. Despite these challenges, Caspian Airlines was still operating flights to Istanbul at the time of the incident.
