An airplane belonging to Fars Air Qeshm also transferred weapon and ammunition from Emam Khomeini Airport to Damascus on Sunday.

EP-MNS was supposed to be given to Syrian Airline. Right after the news was revealed, an airplane belonging to Mahan Air caught in fire in Tehran’s Imam Khomeini International Airport which led to the evacuation of the area that the Mahan Airplanes stay.
