A Jeddah-bound Hajj flight of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) made an emergency landing at Riyadh Airport after high temperature warning.
The Hajj flight had departed from Karachi for Jeddah at 10 pm on Friday night.
Geo News reports that a passenger on PK 839 said that an explosion was heard in the plane during the journey, after which the plane was diverted from Jeddah and landed at Riyadh airport.
Following an aircraft check, high temperature warning mechanism was found to be faulty, and the flight was then flown to its original destination.
