KABUL, Feb. 4 (Xinhuanet)-- An Afghan passenger airplane believed missing late Thursday has landed in an airport in neighboring Pakistan, airliner sources told Xinhua Friday morning.
An official working with Kam Air, Afghanistan's sole private airline operator, told Xinhua in an exclusive telephone interview that the Boeing 737, scheduled to fly back from western border city of Herat to the capital of Kabul, was diverted on way to its destination to the Peshawar airport due to an unprecedented snow storm in the area.
"Now the airplane is in Peshawar," he said. "And 36 passengers among a total of some 100 will be flown to their destination today if weather permits."
Kam Air started operation in 2003 with the backbone of its flight fleet comprising second-hand Boeing 737s on lease from Western countries. It operated mainly domestic airlines linking Kabul with Herat, Mazar-e-Sharif and Kandahar in the south
