Did the plane take off from Libya?
how shitty is their security?:faysalwtf:
unless its similar to what happened in Somalia to the daalo airline where the security were in on the plan.
there is no such thing as security in libya.Isis controls some parts and the rest is controlled by other Islamist groups,its basically a transit for refugees to go to europe ,i personally dont think the border patrol is heavy.
