The plane from Salalah heading to Cologne was Eurowings flight No. The state-run KUNA news agency of Kuwait said 299 passengers on board were evacuated over the incident. In a statement, Eurowings said there were 286 passengers on board the flight, which was being flown by SunExpress on its behalf. The plane was diverted to Kuwait "for security reasons and in consultation with the relevant authorities," Eurowings said in an emailed statement, without elaborating.
