At least 3 Boeing KC-135R (62-6567, 57-2609, 60-2306), one Boeing E-7T (13-001) and one Lockheed C-130E (63-13188) are in flight. This one is the only still trackable and it seems in flight to western Libya.

We can suppose that in flight there are also different fighters (not trackable).

We don’t know if all this flight are related each others but these flights remind us the tipical Italian aerial mission over Misrata with a tanker (KC-767A) an AWACS aircraft (E.550) some fighters (EF.2000 / F-35A) to support a cargo flight (C-130J).

#BREAKING: These F-16C Block 40s of #Turkish Air Force's 182 Filo from #Diarbakir supported by 3 KC-135Rs of 101 Filo from #Incirlik AB participated in the joint exercise with #Turkish Navy close to #Libya's coast. Armed with AIM-9S & AIM-120C missiles, they escorted a C-130E. https://t.co/ygSOEAS1KP pic.twitter.com/pxl0czu9ry

Cumhurbaşkanımız Sn. Erdoğan’ın talimatlarıyla @saglikbakanligi ve @kizilay tarafından hazırlanan sağlık malzemelerini bu kez Somali’ye ulaştırdık. #COVID19 ile mücadelede kullanılacak malzemeleri taşıyan #TSK’ya ait uçağımız Mogadişu’ya indi.https://t.co/y77xj3h6sY #MSB #TSK pic.twitter.com/oWh6jrjV5s
