Mil-8 parked at Heraklion 9th-19th September 2023

I noticed this when we landed on the 9th, creamy white in colour and parked over on the far side of the airfield closest to the sea by some concrete hangars. It was still there when we flew home yesterday and looked like it hadn't moved. Although we taxiied for departure relatively close to it, heat haze prevented any possible read off. Would anyone have any idea as to its registration number please? Thank you
