Belarusian Eurovision journalists cannot reach Minsk due to airplane issue

The Austrian Airlines airplane Vienna-Minsk took off on the morning of May 24. There were Belarusian Eurovision journalists on board.

However, the airplane turned back over Belarusian Byaroza and landed in Vienna, Komsomolskaya Pravda reports. The plane had a problem with wing flaps, the airline announced. The issue was liquidated pretty soon as the same airplane headed for Innsbruck several hours later.

Some of the passengers were promised to be sent to Minsk on the same day. The others will be able to return to Belarus on Monday.
