Plane Engine Incident Reported Over Corfu, Flight Diverted
CORFU, GREECE – A passenger aircraft experienced an apparent engine malfunction while flying over the island of Corfu, Greece, on August 16, 2025. A video captured by a local resident, which has since gone viral, shows bright orange flashes emanating from one of the plane's engines as it traversed the cloudy sky. Eyewitnesses and online commentators have speculated that the flashes could be indicative of either a compressor stall or a bird strike. One commenter, claiming to know passengers on the flight, stated that the aircraft, a Boeing 757, was en route to Düsseldorf (DUS) but was diverted to Brindisi, Italy, following the incident. Passengers reportedly spent the night in the terminal before continuing their journey on a different aircraft. No injuries were reported. Authorities have not yet released an official statement regarding the cause of the engine flashes or the details of the flight diversion. Investigations into such incidents are standard procedure to ensure aviation safety.
