Aug 17 (Reuters) - A Boeing 777 aircraft operated by

Swiss International Air Lines flying from Tokyo to Zurich made

an emergency landing in Kazakhstan on Saturday due to a medical

incident onboard, followed by issues after the aircraft landed,

the airline said in a statement.

The Boeing 777-300ER's nose wheel got caught in the grass

and was stuck, requiring it to be towed back onto the runway,

the statement said. The aircraft will be examined for damage and

will be a subject of investigation.

Swiss confirmed that none of 319 passengers onboard were

injured due to the incident.

Boeing did not immediately respond to a request for

comment outside regular business hours.
