A Shaheen Air Boeing 737-4H6, performing flight NL 122 from Benazir Bhutto International Airport - ISB/OPRN, Islamabad, to Jinnah International Airport - KHI/OPKC, Karachi, was carrying 160 passengers (some sources reported 122?) and six crew.

The gear strut penetrated throught the upper wing root area until the left wing came into ground contact.
The plane encountered considerable damage.
There were no injuries.
