The flight landed just before 9 p.m. (local time) on Saturday, Xinhua news agency reported.
Onboard the aircraft were 170 passengers, including more than 100 Dutch nationals. The remaining passengers were citizens from Belgium, France, Austria and Spain, who were evacuated at the request of their respective governments.
