A passenger plane has landed in Myanmar, also known as Burma, without its front wheels.

The Myanmar National Airline (MNA) plane was landing at Mandalay International Airport on Sunday when its landing gear failed to deploy.

All 82 passengers and seven crew are reported to be safe and uninjured after the incident.

The domestic flight made a scheduled but emergency landing on its rear landing wheels only.

"The runway is 14,000ft and the plane landed at 5000ft".
