Three of the American aircraft manufacturer Boeing's planes have been involved in incidents in recent days.

Ten people were injured when a Boeing 737 skidded off the runway at the airport in the Senegalese capital Dakar late Wednesday night. The plane was en route to Mali.

There is no information on the condition of the injured. A total of 85 people were on board when the accident occurred.

On Thursday, a tire exploded as a Boeing 737 was landing at an airport near the Turkish city of Alanya. None of the 190 people on board were injured.

On Wednesday, a Boeing 767 made an emergency landing at Istanbul airport after a landing gear problem. No one on board the plane, a FedEx cargo plane, was injured in the incident.
