    16 November 2012

     

    A plane carrying returnees from Khartoum has made a forced landing in Aweil, Northern Bahr el Ghazel.

    The fixed-wing craft with 57 passengers on board was forced to come down at Aweil airport at about 5 o'clock this evening.

    Some passengers sustained slight injuries, details of the incident are still not clear.

    Speaking to journalists at Aweil Airport, the Deputy Governor of Northern Bahr el Ghazal State, Madut Dut Yel, thanked the pilot for saving the lives of the passengers.

    The plane belonging to Kenyan company "Sky World" International was contracted by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to transport the refugees.

    Meanwhile, Jetlink Express has suspended flights to Juba.

    The regional airline based in Nairobi, Kenya, has suspended flights with immediate effect with no indication of when operations along the Nairobi-Juba route would resume.

    The reasons behind the suspension are not clear although some media reports say it is linked to a shortage of foreign currency, which is needed to buy fuel and manage the aircraft.

     

    Spotted the aircraft on delivery via Dhaka, Bangladesh, February 2012
