A PIA Pakistan International Airlines Airbus A320-200, registration AP-BLS performing flight PK-310 from Karachi to Quetta (Pakistan), was climbing out of Karachi's runway 25L when one of the engines (CFM56) ingested a bird prompting the crew to stop the climb at 5000 feet and return to Karachi for a safe landing on runway 25L about 15 minutes after departure.

A post flight inspection revealed a number of fan blades were damaged. The aircraft is still on the ground in Karachi about 10 hours after landing back.
