Turkey visas
Berlin - MENA
A Syrian plane with 187 refugees on board took off from Beirut Airport heading back to Syria as Turkey starts applying visas to all comers as of Friday.
Earlier, another plane with 174 Syrians on board returned to Syria for the new visa measures.
About 29 Syrians are waiting at the airport for another plane to take them home.
Turkey introduced visa requirements for Syrians arriving by air and sea on Friday, part of efforts to stem the flow of illegal migrants to Europe, forcing hundreds of Syrians to return to Damascus.
