This will cause significant delays as more aircraft will be diverting. For example, the second daily Emirates flight #EK37 will likely have to divert (ETA is 19:12), with the other Emirates flight still stuck at the gate

⚠️ BHX Update - Runway Temporarily Closed

@alexprismbreak I imagine lots of the problem is displaced aircraft - airlines like Air France have their aircraft at EMA, and they'll probably need to get their aircraft back to their hubs for future flights. It's annoying but nothing really can be done
English

@aerospacealerts just annoyed they have cancelled flights instead of delaying them.

UPDATE:
Following an incident at Birmingham Airport #BHX earlier today, it is confirmed everyone involved is ok and has been cleared by the ambulance service.
Delays are growing with check in and security remaining closed.

@alexprismbreak It's likely aircraft recovery will take some time, as information will have to be gathered for an investigation. It's also likely with a belly landing there will be debris or damage to the runway that will have to be cleared - the last thing you want is a second incident!

@aerospacealerts if they ok why are flights being cancelled. Clear the road and keep traffic moving
English

At least 8 aircraft have been cancelled, and some, such as #FR3703 are delayed by 6+ hours (according to @flightradar24)
Scheduled: 16:05
Estimated: 01:05 tomorrow

Birmingham Airport Police have reported one person has been treated for minor injuries.

Delays at Birmingham airport are mounting.
#EK39, one of two daily Emirates flights to Birmingham, appears to be delayed by around 4 hours.

This supports the fact it is a landing gear collapse. I'm working on finding more details.
