An Italian Air Force Boeing KC-767A (MM62229) departed from Instambul is landing (12:00 CET) in Milan Malpensa.

We don’t know the nature of the mission but probably is linked to the COVID-19 medical emergency: the Turkish government, from March 5, had blocked more than 200.000 masks ordered (and paid) by some regions of Italy at the customs.
In recent days, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has contacted its Turkish counterpart and probably part of the supply has now been able to leave for Italy.
