Two passenger planes collided on a runway in Japan on Tuesday.
Korean Air Flight 766 “came into contact” with a Cathay Pacific aircraft stationed at New Chitose Airport in Hokkaido, Japan, Korean Air said in a statement. No one was injured after the collision.
The incident occurred around 5:30 p.m. local time before a scheduled Korean Air flight to Seoul, South Korea, officials told NHK. The jet was moving the taxiing vehicle while pushing away from the gate when it collided with the parked Cathay Pacific aircraft.

According to NHK, snowy conditions on the runway caused the Korean Air plane to skid and collide with another plane. It has been snowing in Japan for several days as temperatures have reached a freezing level of 26 degrees, according to weather reports.
Footage obtained by the newspaper allegedly shows damage to both planes after the collision. The left wing of the Korean Air plane appeared to be broken, and there was a crack in the back of the Cathay Pacific plane.
According to airport officials, there were no reports of fire or fuel leaks on the planes at the time of the incident, according to NHK.
Flights have since been canceled at New Chitose Airport, and further disruptions are expected, according to ABC News.
