Aircraft
On Aircraft X from ZZZ to ZZZ1 we had smoke in the aft cabin and diverted to ZZZ2. We were in cruise at 13;000 ft when the CA (Captain) saw the smoke. We descended to 10;000 ft right away and turned off the bleeds. The smoke in the aft cabin cleared. We landed in ZZZ2 with no further issues.[The first detection occurred] when the CA saw the smoke in the aft cabin.[Captain suspects] something in the Bleeds and/or Packs.
SA-227 Captain reported a diversion due to smoke in the aft cabin during cruise.
