A technical problem forces a flight to the UAE to return to India

A technical problem forces a flight to the UAE to return to India

 On Monday, Etihad Airlines reported that a technical issue forced its Bangalore-Abu Dhabi flight to return to the Indian airport and make a "normal landing."

The official airline of the UAE stated that it wasn't an emergency landing as several media sites had claimed.

"On April 2, Etihad Airlines aircraft EY237 from Bangalore International Airport (BLR) to Abu Dhabi (AUH) turned around shortly after takeoff due to a mechanical problem. A spokeswoman for the airline told Khaleej Times on Monday that the plane made a routine landing in Bangalore.

The statement read, "The necessary technical inspections were carried out and the flight continued to Abu Dhabi, where it landed early this morning."

Because to the substantial Indian diaspora that resides and works in the emirates, the route between the UAE and India is frequently used by airlines from the two nations. Every year, millions of individuals go between the two nations in search of tourist and employment possibilities.

This Monday, Etihad Airlines restarted service to Kolkata, the capital of West Bengal, making it the airline's seventh location in India.

The comfort and safety of its passengers and personnel are Etihad's top priorities, the airline said on Monday. "We apologize for any interference with your travel schedule."

Bangladesh Military Expresses Discontent Over Chinese Weapons; Reports 'Sub-Standard' and Faulty Parts

  Bangladesh, a traditional buyer of Chinese military equipment, has raised grievances with Beijing regarding the delivery of defective components and technical malfunctions in its imported military hardware. This issue is not unique to Bangladesh, as other nations like Myanmar have also encountered problems with Chinese fighter jets, according to an ET report. Experts in the Chinese defense industry argue that Beijing lacks the expertise to manufacture highly sophisticated military hardware and is not yet considered a top-tier producer of modern defense equipment. They claim that much of China's weapon systems are based on outdated technology copied from the West. Developing countries often opt for Chinese weapons due to their lower cost compared to similar systems from Western countries. China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil
