Got this from another site:
Dubai International Airport was closed for eight hours today after a Cathay Pacific 747-300 cargo freighter burst a tire upon landing. This came just before a Bangladesh jet lost its nose wheel while attempting to take off. The remains of the tire were reportedly on the runway after the Cathay plane completed its landing. The incident occurred “prior to the Biman SAS A310 losing its nose wheel as it attempted takeoff,” injuring 14 people and causing the eight-hour closure.
I hope no one will be sacked over this.
