Air India plane seen descending over Ahmedabad before crashing behind buildings
Just before crashing in western India, a video depicting the tragic moments leading up to the Air India plane disaster has been confirmed by CBS News. The footage showcases the aircraft descending over the city before disappearing behind buildings and erupting into a massive explosion. The flight, AI171, bound for London's Gatwick airport, had taken off from Ahmedabad Airport with 242 passengers onboard. Although most faced casualties, there was one miraculous survivor, a British individual of Indian descent, who is currently undergoing treatment at the hospital. Investigations into the crash are underway with India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau taking the lead and U.S. officials from the National Transportation Safety Board offering assistance. This incident marks the first crash involving a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, and further examination of flight data recordings is expected to shed light on the cause of the tragedy.
