Antalya Governor’s Office Deputy Suat Seyitoglu, who also serves as the Regional Administrative Officer at the airport, confirmed that the fire occurred during landing and was swiftly contained. "All passengers were evacuated without injury, and thankfully, no one was harmed. There is no further issue at the moment," Seyitoglu said.
