A laptop catches fire during a flight, leaving five passengers with burn injuries, according to NDTV. The incident occurs while the aircraft is in the air, and cabin crew respond immediately to the flames.
NDTV reports that flight attendants extinguish the fire and move the burning device to the middle section of the plane as part of their response. The accounts focus on the injuries and the actions taken by crew to contain the incident onboard.
Across the available reporting, the core details are consistent: the source of the fire is a laptop, the fire happens mid-flight, and five passengers sustain burn injuries. The coverage does not provide additional specifics such as the airline, route, aircraft type, or how the laptop malfunctioned, and it does not describe any differing interpretations of the cause.
