According to unofficial information from the scene, one of the two pilots catapulted himself and is being searched for.

It is an inaccessible, wooded terrain.

Earlier today, the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, confirmed the information about the plane crash in a TV broadcast from Turkey, saying that he had information that the plane that crashed was an old MiG 21.
