Doha. Qatar: Qatar Airways, in a social media post, shared a statement regarding a video circulating on social media depicting a freighter aircraft, in Qatar Airways livery, conducting a low-pass.

The aircraft in the video, Qatar Airways said, is owned by a leasing company and not by Qatar Airways.
