Condor B757 makes emergency landing at PMI (Mallorca)

First report (in German) here. Other sources report that several tyres were blown, runway was blocked for a while, three incoming flights were diverted to Ibiza and Menorca.

No tyre blown, just a thrown tread.

I stand corrected: thrown tread on one, partly disintegrated on another wheel, (out of four on one side).

Are you sure this was an emergency landing ? Tires were blown after landing, I guess ...

Tire damages resulting from cracked concrete surface in Munich, where they departed.
So actually damaged before takeoff. Crew became aware only later during the flight thru info from ATC.
TUI jet also affected, now grounded in Corfu.

Wow that's sounds pretty extreme. From the runway?
