"A plane approaching Heathrow Airport is believed to have hit a drone before it landed safely, the Metropolitan Police have said."

"The British Airways flight from Geneva was hit as it approached the London airport at about 12:50 BST with 132 passengers and five crew on board."

"After landing, the pilot reported an object - believed to be a drone - had struck the front of the Airbus A320."
