Just seeing this on the news.

Can't tell how bad. Looks like an engine hit on landing and burst into flames.

I was about to ask whether it was their brand new A350s..... let's hope nobody got injured. Can't find any developments at the moment.

HND says the plane landed on the fuselage- some problem with landing gear

Flight from Chitose. Saying it might have collided with a Japan coast guard plane.

All over the news here in Tokyo now. Apparently it collided with a “marine coast guard airplane” upon landing.

Looks like very limited information available (headline only) on both NHK and BBC. Hope nobody got hurt!
