They must have turned off the plane's signals, because it did not appear on radar for three days, and it was impossible to track its destination.
The plane did not appear again until Saturday evening, returning directly to the Kecskimet base from the southern border region of Tunisia.
On 7 June, we sent questions to the Ministry of National Defense (HM) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (KKM) to find out what action the National Defense aircraft were involved in. We also asked whether the road could be linked to the national defense mission in Chad, about which the government has recently released little specific information.
Noting that the plane falls under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Interior, KKM indicated that it would not respond to the investigation. On the other hand, we tried to contact the press department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs several times during the past week, but despite the promises, they did not respond, and in the end they did not answer the phone.
