Summary

A K2 Airways cargo plane vanished over the Arabian Sea after reporting a navigation glitch, sparking a massive multinational search effort. The Boeing 737-400, Pakistan’s first potential fatal aviation incident since 2020, carried five crew members — two pilots, two engineers, and a support staffer — whose fate remains unknown. Radar showed a sudden, steep descent after just minutes of communication with air traffic control. With the aircraft’s sole operational plane since 2024, the tragedy has shaken Pakistan’s aviation community, prompting Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to personally direct rescue operations and extend condolences to the families.
