This morning an Antonov An-12B (UR-11819) of Motor Sich Airlines landed at Milan Malpensa Airport. The flight M96540 took off from Tel Aviv (TLV).

It will leave this night towards Saudia Arabia.

One interesting characteristic of the An-12 is the absence either of slats or leading edge flaps, which force the aircraft to fly with a nose down attitude during the approach as visible in this video:
