Jakarta, Indonesia
- Two passenger aircraft collided on the runway of an airport in the Indonesian capital, forcing its temporary closure.
No injuries were reported.
The accident on Monday evening occurred at a military airport that handles some civilian flights to ease congestion at Jakarta's main commercial airport.
Batik Air said in a statement that its plane carrying 49 passengers and seven crew was “touched” while taxiing for takeoff by a TransNusa aircraft that was being towed.
Images posted online showed severe damage to the wing of the Batik Air jet.
The airline said passengers and crew were safely evacuated.
