An Alliance Air passenger flight makes an emergency landing at Delhi airport after a reported engine failure. The airline’s aircraft lands safely, with about 40 people on board, after one engine is reported to be inoperative.
According to reports, the flight is operated using an ATR 72-600, a twin-engine turboprop aircraft. The aircraft is flying on Alliance Air flight 9I 698, departing from Prayagraj and heading to Delhi (the National Capital). Multiple outlets describe the incident primarily as an engine failure leading to the emergency landing, with the focus on the aircraft’s safe touchdown.
Outlets broadly agree on the cause and outcome: an engine malfunction is cited as the trigger, and the landing at Delhi airport is presented as the immediate response. Differences are limited to phrasing, with some sources emphasizing the engine being inoperative and others referring generally to engine failure.
