An ACT Airlines–operated Boeing 747 cargo plane (flying for Emirates) veered off the runway while landing at Hong Kong International Airport and ended up in the sea, killing two ground handling staff. The four flight crew were rescued and hospitalized. Emirates said the aircraft was leased from Türkiye-based ACT Airlines and was not carrying cargo. Authorities have opened an investigation.
