A damaged engine forced a Pakistani military C-130 aircraft to make an emergency landing on Wednesday at an airport in northern Portugal, the country's airport management company ANA reported.
"The plane landed normally around 12:46 pm (local and GMT), without creating disruption" at the airport outside the city of Oporto, ANA spokesman Rui Oliveira said. Emergency services were on alert but were not needed, he added.
