A small commercial US plane has made an emergency landing in the southwestern Iranian city of Ahvaz after facing technical problems, an Iranian official says, Press TV reports.
The plane landed in Ahvaz airport some 20 days ago, managing director of Iran's airports, Mahmoud Rasoulinejad said on Sunday.
“The 3-member plane faced technical problems while passing over Iran's airspace and this is the reason that the airport permitted it to make a landing,” he added.
He noted that after landing, the plane’s crew travelled on to their destination in the Persian Gulf countries and the airplane is currently being repaired in Ahvaz airport.
