Late Thursday night, an incident involving an Indian Air Force (IAF) aircraft caused the runway at Pune International Airport to be temporarily inoperative, affecting multiple incoming flights. The IAF's Media Coordination Centre confirmed via a post on X that all aircrew were safe and that there was no damage to civil property. Consequently, at least eight flights scheduled to land in Pune were diverted to other airports, including Surat International Airport, Manohar International Airport, Navi Mumbai International Airport, Chennai International Airport, and Coimbatore International Airport. Passengers on these flights faced delays and rerouting while authorities worked diligently to restore operations. Currently, efforts are underway to clear the runway, although the specific nature of the incident has not been disclosed.
