State news agency Anadolu reported that among the eight victims there are five Russians and three Turks.

Contact with the plane that was rented by Russia to help extinguish the fires was lost, said province governor Kahramanmaras, Omer Faruk Coskun.

He said a large number of search-saving teams were sent to the scene. The cause of the plane crash is still unknown.

A video on the social network has been published where the plane is in action and then it hides behind a hill. Soon behind the hill is black smoke in the sky.
