The distraction reportedly caused a lapse in situational awareness, resulting in contact between aircraft. No fatalities were reported, but the incident has sparked serious concerns about cockpit discipline and safety protocols. Authorities have launched an investigation and are reviewing regulations to prevent similar distractions and ensure stricter adherence to in-flight operational standards.
