Sepehran Airlines Flight Makes Emergency Landing After Detached Tyre Causes Vibrations
A Sepehran Airlines Boeing 737 flight from Mashhad to Kermanshah was forced to make an emergency landing after a tyre reportedly detached during take-off, causing severe vibrations.
The incident occurred on September 16, 2026, shortly after the plane departed from Mashhad Airport in northeastern Iran. According to reports, the crew detected the issue moments after take-off and informed passengers of a technical problem.
As the aircraft continued flying, it began to shake heavily, prompting the crew to abandon the journey and turn back to Mashhad Airport. The shaking reportedly affected parts of the cabin interior, with overhead compartments opening and personal belongings falling onto seats and the aisle.
No injuries were reported among passengers or crew. Authorities have not yet released a detailed statement on the cause of the incident, but aviation officials are expected to examine the aircraft to determine whether the reported tyre failure was linked to the subsequent engine malfunction.
