Pakistan hunts missing cargo plane after navigational fault over Arabian Sea

A Boeing 737-400 freighter operated by K2 Airways vanished after reporting a navigational system fault while en route to Karachi from Sharjah. Flight-tracking data showed a rapid descent before contact was lost west of Karachi; naval ships, a merchant vessel, and two navy aircraft are participating in the search, with no wreckage or survivors found so far. If confirmed, it would mark Pakistan’s first major civilian air disaster since 2020.
