Re: Gunfire Reported at Karachi Airport
Very sad situation indeed. I pray to allah swt that they catch the culprits.
This will no doubt damage the reputation of the airline industry and the security forces.
I hope this situation gets resolved very quickly with minimum damage to infrastructure and equipment.

Re: Gunfire Reported at Karachi Airport
Near the tail of Air Indus Boeing 737-300 a fire tender can be seen trying to control fire caught by a structure. Probably it's Hajj Terminal - Arrival / Terminal 2 of the airport or SAPS complex.
