Israel’s airstrikes on Iran, followed by Iran’s response with missiles and drones, changed the dimension of the war. While the attacks continued, the CNN TURK team filmed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s private jet named “Wings of Zion” in Athens.

According to news in the Israeli press, it is stated that some ministers' families have been moved to safe areas. There are claims that they were taken to Athens by plane. CNN TURK reporter Serdar Er and cameraman Yasin Kamaloğlu reported the latest situation from Athens.

CNN TURK reporter Serdar Er's statements are as follows:

Netanyahu's plane is still at Athens International Airport. This airport hosts not only the plane but also other Israeli Airlines planes. CNN TURK's special footage resonated in both the Turkish and international press. This development was also widely covered in the Greek and Israeli media.

The arrival of Netanyahu's plane in Athens sparked criticism from the Israeli public, asking"Is he more important than the people?", while in Greece it led to questioning comments such as"Are we Israel's safe parking area?" Various claims were made as to why the plane was in Greece.

Some sources claimed that Netanyahu fled Israel due to the Iranian attacks. However, in a manner that denies this claim, the Israeli Press Office shared footage of the Prime Minister in operational meetings. Thus, the rumors that he fled were answered.

On the other hand, news that the families of Israeli ministers and Netanyahu's close circle were sent to Athens appeared in the Israeli press. This situation led to harsh criticism from the public. Israelis reacted to the fact that the leaders prioritized their own security, arguing that the people were being left alone to face attacks.
