Asiana B744 at Seoul on Jun 17th 2014, rejected takeoff

An Asiana Airlines Boeing 747-400 freighter, flight OZ-296 from Seoul (South Korea) to Anchorage,AK (USA), was accelerating for takeoff from Seoul's runway 33R at about 22:53L (13:53Z) when one of the left hand engines failed prompting the crew to reject takeoff at high speed (close to V1). The aircraft slowed and came to a stop just short of the runway end. Emergency services responded to cool down the brakes, however, 8 of the 16 main tyres deflated disabling the aircraft on the runway.

The runway was closed until 07:00L the next morning when the aircraft could moved off the runway.

The airport reported that during the night the other two runways were sufficient to avoid delays. A preliminary inspection suggests the left hand engine(s) ingested foreign objects during the takeoff run.
