At Sabiha Gokchen Airport in Istanbul, Turkey, a plane crashed into the field as the plane slipped during landing and crashed into three fields.

More than 120 people, including passengers, were injured in the accident, but the Governor of Istanbul says the injured are in good health.

[Ali Jerlica / Governor of Istanbul: The Pegasus airliner unfortunately slipped 50 to 60 meters off the runway due to bad weather. Fell from a height of 30-40 meters.]

There were 177 people on board, including six crew members.

Some local media reported that one of the pilots was Korean, but the airline said there were no Korean passengers, including flight attendants.

At the time of the incident, Istanbul was raining with strong winds, and Sabiha Gokcen Airport is now closed.

The airliner was landing from Istanbul from southern Izmir as part of Turkish low-cost airline Pegasus Airlines.

The Pegasus airliner had slipped on the runway during landings last month, but no casualties occurred.
