An incident involving a Ryanair aircraft caused panic and tense moments on Saturday night (July 5) at Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI), Spain.

A small fire broke out aboard a Boeing 737-800, registration G-RUKN, prompting an emergency evacuation that left 18 people injured — six of whom were taken to the hospital.

Flight RK3446, bound for Manchester, was still taxiing on the runway when the captain reported a “partial engine fire” to air traffic controllers, according to preliminary information. After informing passengers of the issue, the crew initiated emergency evacuation procedures.

During the evacuation, some panicked passengers jumped directly from the aircraft’s wings to the ground. Emergency and rescue teams responded quickly, providing first aid on the scene.

The exact cause of the fire is still under investigation by airport authorities and the airline.
