A report of white smoke emanating from a landing Singapore Airlines plane led to a temporary closure of a runway at Japan’s Narita Airport on Monday, according to officials. Fortunately, responders found no signs of fire, and no injuries were reported.

The sighting of smoke prompted six fire engines and two ambulances to rush to the scene, resulting in the closure of Narita’s runway B around 7:40 am (2240 GMT), shortly after the flight landed at Tokyo’s main airport.

“We received a report of white smoke rising from the left engine,” a Narita city fire official told AFP. However, after observing the plane for over an hour, firefighters found no evidence of fire and subsequently left the scene.

The aircraft was carrying 276 passengers and crew members, as reported by local media. The flight notified the airport about the smoke issue after landing, with an airport official stating, “It communicated that there was a possibility that it experienced a problem when it landed.”

Additionally, pieces of tire were discovered on the runway, but the spokesman indicated that no further information about the incident was available.
