A cargo plane has skidded off a runway at Hong Kong International Airport and landed in the sea, killing at least one person, local media have reported.
The Emirates flight, operating as Aerotranscargo, was arriving from Dubai just before 04:00 local time when it hit a vehicle on the north runway, local media reports.
Four crew members on board have been rescued and taken to hospital, but two ground staff “fell into the sea”, a statement from the Civil Aviation department says. Their condition is unclear.
The affected runway is closed, but the airport’s other two runways are still in operation.
