Although the landing was extremely urgent and difficult, fortunately, no one was injured.

Rescue teams arrived quickly at the scene, dispatching tugboats to retrieve the plane from the water. While the passengers were safely evacuated, the persistent bird attacks delayed the operation.

Revealing the reason why the flock of birds attacked the plane so aggressively

After a thorough investigation, the cause behind the bird's aggression was finally revealed. 

It turned out that a passenger had been involved in the illegal trade of exotic birds, attempting to smuggle them onboard.
