A Cathay Pacific Airbus A350 and a Boeing 777-300 of the same airline collided at Hong Kong Airport.
According to Travel Radar, the A350 -the registration is still unknown- was being towed to the Tarmac when it collided with the Boeing 777-300 (B-KPD).
In the next images it is possible to see the damage caused on both Cathay Pacific aircraft. The Airbus A350 suffered damage on the right-side winglet, meanwhile the Boeing 777 is damaged on the left horizontal stabiliser.
According to the same source, the airport Ground Controller received a call at 12:30 (local time) alerting them to the incident that occurred on Taxiway J. The taxiway in question is now being used for storage, due to the low demand caused by COVID-19.
It is still not certain when the incident occurred (today or yesterday).
It is the second time in a week that this type of incident has occurred.
On April 13th a British Airways A350 collided with an Emirates Boeing 777 in Dubai, UAE. All the details in the below article:

Guess the structural metal workers will have a job.
The B777 is B-KPD, as seen in the photos in the article.
Seems like quite a few insurance claims for planes running into each other. Guess that’s one way to generate revenue
