An airplane's tyre burst on landing at Cape Town International Airport on Tuesday afternoon, causing flight disruptions as the main runway was closed though all passengers disembarked the plane safely, APA reports citing Reuters.
South Africa's airports management company said the Kenya Airways plane was disabled on the main runway for several hours before the runway could reopen and flights resume.
Some flights may still be delayed as operations return to normal, Airports Company South Africa said in a statement.
Kenya Airways said in a post on X that its engineers and technical team were working to get the plane fixed.
