| A Turkish airliner flying from Tirana to Istanbul has been hijacked and flown to Brindisi in southern Italy, media in Turkey and Greece report. It sent out an SOS twice in Greek airspace, and Athens scrambled four fighters to escort it to Brindisi, a Greek official told Reuters. The Turkish Airlines plane is carrying at least 107 passengers. Unconfirmed reports say there are two hijackers and they are protesting about plans for a papal visit to Turkey. |
