Israeli woman seriously injured at Budapest Airport

When a flight to Tel-Aviv attempted to lift off, suddenly some smoke appeared on the plane. It seemed first that its source was in the aircraft cabin, but it was revealed later that it came from the outside. In any case, the pilot ordered an evacuation. The passengers broke out in panic, which resulted in the head injury of one of them, as Blikk reported.

According to the latest reports, a 39-year-old Israeli woman is in critical condition after being injured on a plane in Ferihegy Airport. She fell from the airport slide when the passengers left the plane in panic. The ambulance crew was working for long to get her into a status that made her transportation to the hospital possible. She was taken to Merényi Gusztáv Hospital for an immediate neurological surgery.

Passengers began to panic on Friday morning on one of Israir’s flights from Budapest to Tel-Aviv. The critical situation hit when the pilot asked them to leave the aircraft cabin immediately. Though it was not clear then, it was later revealed that the other plane towing this one began to smoke and it leaked into the airliner through the engine.

When the captain announced the evacuation, all the passengers rushed to the emergency exit as one.
