A Faisalabad-to-Dubai flight was forced to make an emergency landing in Karachi after a passenger’s health took a critical turn.
The passenger, identified as Zulfiqar, felt sick near Sukkur. Airport officials said the aircraft was near Larkana when the passenger lost consciousness. The pilot immediately alerted Karachi Air Traffic Control and diverted the flight.
Upon landing, the airport’s medical team rushed to provide aid, but doctors confirmed that the passenger had already passed away.
In a separate incident, a three-year-old girl on a Karachi-to-Dubai flight also suffered a medical emergency. The child, named Zahra, developed a high fever mid-flight and fainted. The crew quickly informed emergency responders, who then transferred her to a private hospital for further treatment after landing.
