A Lufthansa flight from Tel Aviv to Munich was forced into an emergency landing in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia Tuesday night after a burning smell spread through the cabin.

Lufthansa has provided lodgings for the passengers, who will board a flight for Munich on Wednesday morning.
The Germany company apologized for the inconvenience to passengers, and said safety was its top priority.
