Shock Video Shows Plane Imploding Mid-Flight After Engine Failure
Passengers screamed as ceiling panels fell inside a Sepehran Airlines Boeing 737 during an emergency landing in Iran on Tuesday, according to Brazilian news outlet UOL.
The flight, bound for Kermanshah, returned to Mashhad after losing a tire shortly after takeoff, UOL reported, citing provincial authorities.
Iran International shared a post on X identifying footage published by Iranian media as showing the frightening incident aboard the Sepehran jet. Its accompanying description referenced a blown tire and reported engine trouble.
UOL attributed the footage to Iranian news agency Akharin Khabar. The airline said passengers escaped injury and were transferred to another flight.
