A Flydubai flight to Sri Lanka carrying two Israeli citizens among the passengers made an emergency landing in Karachi, Pakistan, overnight, the Foreign Ministry says.

Israel does not have diplomatic ties with Pakistan.

The ministry says that it worked, together with others, to ensure the welfare of the Israelis.

The ministry says a short while later, the flight resumed its journey with the Israelis on board.
