An Emirates airline flight traveling from India to Dubai crash-landed at Dubai’s primary airport on Wednesday, with all 300 individuals on board surviving, according to the airline.
Emirates confirmed that the 282 passengers and 18 crew members were safe and accounted for after the incident, although no further details regarding the occurrence were provided
There were indications of wind shear, or a sudden downdraft, at the airport during the aircraft’s descent, but it remained uncertain whether this had any impact on the situation, as noted by the airline’s CEO later on.
Social media users reported seeing smoke at the site, and images depicted a plane ablaze on the airport’s runway.
