Over 45 passengers on Sunday survived in a Sudanair passenger plane\'s emergency landing at Khartoum airport due to a technical fault. The Fokker 50 plane was on a normal flight between Khartoum and Malakal in South Sudan, with 45 passengers on board. \"The plane has safely landed and no one was hurt during the emergency landing,\" said Abdul-Hafez Abdul-Hafeez, spokesman of the Sudanese Civil Aviation Authority, in a statement. The airport authorities closed the roads near the airport and supported the runway sides with sand, which contributed to the safe landing of the plane though one of its tires has not completely opened. Plane incidents have recently happened repeatedly in Sudan, which the Sudanese government blames the United States for its economic sanctions imposed on Sudan including on plane spare-parts.
