Think you'll find that a Misprint regarding A332s. OM-LEX is a 737-8, not A332.

A most bizarre afternoon of diversions, to and from BHX and EMA.
It seemed to start with TUI 738 G-FDZZ due at BHX around 13.30. It left Corfu and suffered a puncture on take off. Why it needed to go to EMA is unsure?. However it kicked off several diversions for both airports.

Been reported that G-FDZZ lost a tyre on departure from Corfu, no idea why it diverted to East Midlands, unless Birmingham would not accept it as it would involve closing the runway for a few hours, and thus 6 EMA flights diverted to BHX!
BBC reported the incident in their usual way... One diverted plane sat on the runway for an hour and was refuelled on the runway, apparently. Must have peeved off other pilots!
Plane makes emergency landing at East Midlands Airport after tyre puncture
The emergency landing caused disruption at Birmingham Airport and East Midlands Airport.

My guess would be favourable wind direction at EMA with the pilots knowing they were going to have reduced braking and unknown damage to the other wheel. Was there was a crosswind at BHX?
Reported that its a technical problem with the NATS system with widespread national disruption

a few BHX nbounds were diverted due to not being able to enter UK airspace
TUI B788 from Kos to Brussels, Easyjet A320 from Heraklion to Paris CDG, and 2 Jet 2 B738s from Catania and Kos went to Paris CDG and Brussels.

Not sure if it collapsed or was a belly landing but assume the runway will be closed for a good couple of hours at least.
Just glad that hopefully everybody is okay.

Some photos of the aircraft can be seen at this tweet.
Looks like a good effort by all involved for a safe outcome

There is footage of the landing on the BBC website linked below, scroll down to the piece at 16:46.
Sadly there are reports of an injury but thankfully only minor so hoping they make a speedy recovery.
