Pravda: Egyptian plane is on fire after making emergency landing at Istanbul Airport


The fire in the plane, which is owned by Egypt's AMC Airlines, was extinguished, and there was no loss of life, said the official, who works at the state agency in charge of airports. He declined to be named because he was not permitted to speak to journalists.

The aircraft landed on its main body, causing a fire while there were 156 passengers and seven crew members aboard, the official said.
