An unidentified flying object has crashed and exploded in Northern Cyprus, local authorities have confirmed, triggering a salvo of rumors ranging from an anti-aircraft missile to a jet downed during an Israeli raid on Syria. | |
“Initial findings indicate the object that caused the explosion was either an aircraft carrying explosives or a direct explosive (missile),” wrote Kudret Ozersay, the foreign minister of Northern Cyprus. | |
Still studying debris at the crash site in the Tashkent area, authorities in the Turkish-backed breakaway region have so far only confirmed that the UFO did not belong to their own armed forces. | |
The incident happened shortly after Syrian air defenses were activated to repel an air raid that Damascus blamed on Israel. | The incident happened shortly after Syrian air defenses were activated to repel an air raid that Damascus blamed on Israel. |
