An international airport, which was forced to close when a warplane overshot the runway, has reopened to flights.

the first sentence is proved to be right, but "MS word " tell to improve the first sentence by adding 2 comma ....

I guess 2 sentences have the samen meaning as well

An international airport, which was forced to close when a warplane overshot the runway, has reopened to flights. - This is better and should be used. With the two commas added, the meaning of the long sentence is clearer.

Both are understandable, but the first is better. However, I suggest to put one comma & add one pronoun is even better:
An international airport which was forced to close when a warplane overshot the runway, it has reopened to flights.

The second one is better.
i.e.:
An internatioanl airport was forced to close when a warplane overshot the runway.
An international airport has reopened to flights.

but the first one does not sound right.
