A bit more flesh:

 

Two passenger planes came into contact on a taxiway at Tokyo's Haneda Airport on Saturday. No injuries were reported.

 

Transport ministry and airline officials say an aircraft operated by Taiwan's Eva Air, which was stationary on a taxiway, and a Thai Airways plane, which was passing behind it, made physical contact at around 11 a.m.

 

The horizontal tail of the Eva Air jet and one wing of the Thai Airways plane were partly damaged.

 

A total of 207 passengers and crew members were on the Eva Air aircraft, while the Thai Airways jet was carrying 264 people.

 

Footage from an NHK camera shows the Thai jet coming to a halt after passing behind the Eva Air plane at around 11 a.m.
