Dubai

No passengers suffered any injuries during a reported bird strike encountered by an Emirates flight EK571 landing at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport in West Bengal on Monday, according to the Kolkata airport.

There was minor damage to the plane and it has been grounded for repairs while passengers were rebooked on other return flights to Dubai, multiple media outlets have reported. The incident mirrors a similar bird strike last week at the same airport.
