Re: Rockets Fired Towards Peshawar Airport
Rockets attack did not cause any damage to runway.
After getting clearance from authorities, flights operation has resumed at Peshawar Airport and PIA flight PK-217 from Islamabad has landed at the airport. PK-217 is operated from Islamabad to Abu Dhabi via Peshawar.
Qatar Airways flight QR-608 from Doha is also expected to land at Peshawar at 2:30 AM.
Reports of airport terminal building evacuation due to rocket attack are untrue, according to latest news.
