An Ethiopian Airlines 777F cargo plane has caught fire at Shanghai Pudong International Airport. The fire appears to have erupted on the plane’s cargo deck before ripping through the upper decks.
The blaze broke out Wednesday afternoon as airport fire crews rushed to the scene to stop the flames from spreading to the gangway and up into the airport. Eyewitness video from the scene shows thick smoke billowing from the belly of the aircraft.
There are no reports of injuries at this time and airport authorities appear to have the situation under control.
According to FlightRadar24, the plane’s registration ET-ARH last flew from Brussels International Airport (BRU) to Shanghai Pudong (PVG).
A similar incident in which an Ethiopian Airlines 787 caught fire at London’s Heathrow airport in 2013 was caused by a battery fault.

meshrefet is a cursed son of bi'tch, unless he resigns or is surgically removed, many such disasters will hit Ethiopia. The last 2 years had been the most disastrous years in Ethiopia for the last 30 years.

Abdelfezaz, it sounds like this incident is the work of woyane.
If I was a filthy agame, I would 'pray' no crime or no human caused disaster happens to any thing ethiopian....be it lives or properties.
On top of that, as a filthy agame (if I was one) I wouldn't comment on such ethio things, especially pointing 'my agame dirty finger's towards the two men who are drafting a severe punishment to 'my woyane shifta rats'.
