The incident happened at Yangon International Airport, Myanmar yesterday, February 13,

After the collision, instead of stopping to handle the incident, the Korean Air plane carrying 134 passengers and 11 crew members continued to run to the runway to take off.

According to information from Yangon airport, at the time of the collision, the two Korean Air pilots were unaware of the incident, and even the alarm system on the plane was not working.

The incident was only discovered when ground staff at Yangon airport reported it to air traffic control and the flight was cancelled while preparing for takeoff. All 134 passengers were transferred to another flight a few hours later.
